Yes. It is in our bylaws and in all the public statements we have made.
Basically, we could have had "open" board meetings with executive sessions
that were closed, but we figured (the Initial Board voted) that this (below)
is the best way to do it. The meeting on Wednesday is open,and with the
Board, but it is not a "board meeting." DUring it we expect to consider
proposals, ask questions, debate issues among ourselves publicly and with
the public, and so on. It makes it easier for everyone to have a clear-cut
schedule, rather than invite people to come to an "open" board meeting and
cool their heels while we hold executive sessions. As also laid out in the
bylaws, all Board votes on substantive issues will be on the record.
