Workshop Board Meetings

Revision as of 21:17, 10 July 2012

The purpose of this page is to collaboratively plan oVirt Board Meetings at OVirt Global Workshops. We are currently exploring which upcoming workshops work best for Members Board Meetings.

Upcoming Workshops Where a Board Meeting May Be Held

• August 28, 2012: LinuxCon North America
• November 7-9, 2012: LinuxCon Europe (workshop will be co-located with KVM Forum)
• January 22-24, 2013: NetApp Headquarters in Sunnyvale, California, US
• March 20-21, 2013: Intel Campus in Shanghai, China

Scheduling Board Meetings

In order to schedule Board Meetings, we will need to determine which Board Members will attend each workshop and their level of interest in having a Board Meeting at a particular workshop. If it is determined that we would be scheduling too many Board Meetings by having one at each large workshop, we can narrow down to a subset of upcoming workshops based on Board Member availability and timing preferences.

For the purposes of collecting this data, we are asking all oVirt Board Members to add their names to the list for each workshop where they would like to attend a Board Meeting. Should a Board Member wish to see a Board Meeting occur at a workshop where the member cannot be present, please add additional details, e.g. will participate remotely.

Open Questions

• Is there a requirement for oVirt that a certain number of Board Members be present in order to have a quorum for decision making purposes?
  • If so, how many members are required?
• Are oVirt Board Meetings public or private?
  • If Board Meetings are public, we should generate a plan to invite a wider audience to the meetings.
