The traffic varies. I'd guess (without checking) that there is an average of
about 20 mails per month, mostly between board members - perhaps fewer than 5
emails per month coming from people outside the board asking questions.

Meeting frequency this year has been mostly every 2 weeks, apart from a period
recently which was slightly perturbed by the GNOME summit. Normally, we're
having a board meeting next Wednesday.

Cheers,
Dave.
