[00:01:18] <MirahezeRelay>	 <raidarr> if nothing else board is as close to a platform leadership as exists, and some leadership and directive is a much needed ingredient for miraheze
[00:01:41] <MirahezeRelay>	 <raidarr> if only by virtue of board members as community leaders organizing things more than the board itself as an entity, since the duties of that entity are a bit narrow and simple

[00:03:14] <MirahezeRelay>	 <pskyechology> [2/2] * dont get sued
[00:11:20] <MirahezeRelay>	 <crystalite13> yuh
[01:45:49] <MirahezeRelay>	 <notaracham, replying to raidarr> Yep, exactly so. Board is inherently and intentionally a weak entity - it's a financial and legal caretaker to enable the space for the project to continue operating and evolving, making decisions when they're needed.
[01:46:50] <MirahezeRelay>	 <notaracham> Part of the slowdown on meetings is that a lot of the baseline stakes have already been debated and finalized w/r/t foundation policy
[01:47:35] <MirahezeRelay>	 <notaracham> Where real action continues are projects driven in a personal capacity/initiative
[02:03:24] <MirahezeRelay>	 <notaracham, replying to pskyechology> Totally agree on this point. I'm hoping next month will be a substantial downturn in my other obligations, which'll afford me time to do more of this type of planning/championing.
[02:03:57] <MirahezeRelay>	 <notaracham> Hopefully we can all get some good things brewing with more bandwidth at our disposal
[02:26:44] <MirahezeRelay>	 <pskyechology> queue the summer montage!
[02:41:02] <MirahezeRelay>	 <notaracham> Hot Miraheze summerrrrrrrr

[03:21:59] <MirahezeRelay>	 <emiliers> Re: stalled RfCs, from my perspective, it feels like RfCs in drafting are easy to forget, especially if there's a lot of stuff to fix about it  and whoever proposes it loses momentum/drive to edit it extensively.
[03:24:12] <MirahezeRelay>	 <emiliers> To me, it feels like a visible single-topic blogpost (or if we're going back to the ye olde days: a forum threads) where all discussion on an RfC can be consolidated and users can speak to each other about only that topic in a back-and-forth could be more useful for moving individual RfCs forward than just a general update blogpost.
[03:25:08] <MirahezeRelay>	 <emiliers> Like, Talk pages are nice, but it's hard to get a back-and-forth going between multiple people on them, you know? While the nature of Discord means conversations are easily lost/buried, with forum threads on Discord easily being forgotten since they can be hidden from channel lists.
