Paolo knows this, and has personally participated in discussion around LibreOffice Online (where he has/had an interest). Cheers, -- Thorsten signature.asc Description: PGP signature

Hi Cor, all, Am 29.03.23 um 15:58 schrieb Cor Nouws: Hi Andreas, Andreas Mantke wrote on 29/03/2023 12:04: 7. Status Report, Discuss: TDF 2023 Budget Planning (tdf-board, 5 mins) Thorsten and Gabor declared a personal interest on the above topics (see above). I ask if they both attended the call and the discussion during this three topics of the private part of the meeting. Who lead the meeting as chair during this three topics? A personal interest is not a conflict of interest which in general is not a reason to abstain from discussing topics. sorry to be very clear here: I've never read or heard such nonsense inside other communities, I'm active in. I think the documents, linked by Paolo in his email on this list, should show, that all members with a personal interest had to keep out of any discussion (and decision) of the corresponding topics. Further question: why didn't declare Cor also a personal interest about this three topics? Sorry if it is not there. IIRC I said the same applied for me - as is usually the case - so my name should be there in the minutes too. I ask you and also Thorsten and Gabor to not participate in any discussion (and decision) of the corresponding topics. This is important because otherwise you violate obligations as board member and create liabilities.
