Hi, Adam
I don't think this is relevant to this motion. Clearly, if such a
negotiation were to happen, the Board could move to consider the
matter in 'executive session'. In the meantime, there is no reason not
to make votes public (and the discussion of them in the meetings
which is already public.)

It is my belief (hope) that the only time a vote is only sent to
one list rather than both is when there is an oversight by the
sender. Vote should be public,
Should but not must.
There can be (have been, and might be in future be) times when Sugar
Labs needs in-the-interim-confidential negotiations with
billion-dollar sponsor/ally governments and orgs or all kinds.
Naturally merger/acquisition or multimillion-dollar sponsorship
situations affect almost everyone, who cannot all be at the
negotiating table, nor can all Board members cannot possibly always agree.
Hence it's generally a legal/fiduciary responsibility of the Executive
Director (or similar) to consult privately with the Board in these
kinds of high-stakes situations -- keeping as many as possible
apprised of deliberations -- while preserving interim confidentiality
wherever and whenever necessary to protect the full/strategic
interests of 501(c)3 Sugar Labs.
but if the vote is forwarded to both lists after the fact, it
should still be valid.
