Keeping the board discussion going

One of the things complained about in the election (and most past
elections, including ones where I complained) was that the communication
between the board and members tends to happen once a year at election
time, and that those who want to keep up on board activity haven't been
able to do so.

While I plan to get the meeting summaries posted to the wiki more often
(though so far I've failed at meeting that plan), following those would
require subscribing to the wiki, and doesn't really give any place to ask
questions or give feedback.

I'm hesitant to just start posting the summaries and meeting agendas to
members at x.org though, since I don't know if all the members want to be
involved at that level (and that volume of e-mail, though hopefully it
will still be lower than the xorg & xorg-devel mailing lists).

What do the members of the list think?   Would you object to a higher
email volume year round in exchange for being more informed on board
activities, or should we be looking into setting up a new mailing list
for those who are interested to subscribe. ( board-discuss at x.org? )
