  4. The Chair asked whether there were any items from the Board Public or Board Private Mailing Lists that should be disclosed in this meeting.
    • One message raised the question of how to properly hold Board Meetings when Board Members are distributed around the world.
  5. Next, the Chair asked whether there were any updates to Action Items.

      • Gero volunteered to add them to the CAcert Members Mailing List.
      • There was a question about progress with the Blog Post. Brian responded that he had asked for help, but not had any responses, so was wondering whether his e-mail messages were getting through. Dirk offered to help, after this meeting.
      • Dirk brought up Permissions Review and some entries for people who were no longer in their positions. Discussion about ownership and responsibility for maintenance ensued. Dirk then asked whether somebody could find messages in the mailing lists, recording the resignations, so that the Permissions list can be properly updated. Gero volunteered to do so.
