A public agenda as has been mentioned by a couple of other people looks like a good place to start. Video conferencing has its disadvantages - at the very least, meetings where potentially important decisions will be made can be streamed using some free service or the other, using a simple setup. I don't see that being a problem if there's enough bandwidth to go around. Audio recordings have problems - editing them will be painful. Anyway, I see this thread started as a response to one I initiated about the name changes for Freed/Freedel. Well, I justify my question in _this particular case_ because, as I recall, no prior notices were sent out, and the list was out of the loop. Not that this should be taken as the norm by everyone - I know its not, but I found a discrepancy and addressed it. And I'd do it again in a jiffy :) But the important thing is, that it evoked a reaction big enough for steps to be considered and taken, which I think highlights the openness for all to see.
