This board meeting is scheduled for the 26th of October 2015 at 14.00 UTC through a hangout. This is an optional "orientation" meeting. Length will be 1 hour.
Goal of Meeting
The general goal of this meeting to help new Board members get comfortable in the new position. Sometimes e-mails and IRC meetings don't provide an opportunity to ask questions and to learn of existing issues. Also, it is possible that some board members don't know each other yet, formally; this could help bring a voice or a face to names.
