The minutes should currently be published within two weeks of the
meeting and the agenda at least two days before the meeting.[1]

I am guessing that you don't want the targets to change, but for them
to actually be achieved. For reference, at the last GUADEC meeting,
the board chose to have a vice-secretary to help achieve the targets,
but this did not seem to help much.

I will make sure that whoever steps up for the jobs is aware of how
much work this involves and I am willing to volunteer myself as a
tertiary backup as I have published agendas and minutes before, and
taken minutes at meetings. Unfortunately, my time is finite and the
treasurer position already takes more work than any of the others so I
don't think that I would be an effective  president/chair or secretary
while acting as the treasurer. (As should be clear by now, I am
running for treasurer again.)
