I've set out a first draft of what such a board could look like, after looking into the WMF's advisory board setup and some other background documents, at: https://uk.wikimedia.org/wiki/Advisory_Board I would like to put this forward to the board at its November meeting, if the proposal is sufficiently well developed and there's general agreement by then. I'd greatly appreciate it if those interested in this topic could edit the page directly, leave messages on the talk page, reply to this email or contact me off-list/wiki. :-) Thanks, Mike
