No idea since I have no idea what most of those things are. You could try making it more clear, for starts by using the full expressions rather than the abbreviations. Cheers, Peter

I think Visual Editor is sucking up the oxygen in Foundation engineering at the moment, leaving the lengthy community backlog mostly in the lurch; and (7) funding the Foundation Engineering Community backlog, and lengthening it from 10 items to 20. I am also fascinated by the discussion about whether a Florida law selection trumps an advertised election, but more interested in why Kevin wrote that I don't understand the Foundation mission. I proposed years ago that all Board meetings' open sessions should be live-streamed and recorded. The Foundation does that for monthly meetings, why not the Board too?
