GNOME is open - some might even call it a GNU project. However, the board meetings are private, the board mailing list discussions are private, and the advisory board (list of companies with a stake in the project) is also private. Does that effect the project? No, I don't believe so. There's obviously a very careful balance between private and public, but I *absolutely* think we can find it in this case. Glynn
