Haven't seen a reply from Vincent yet... but in preparation for 
tomorrow's meeting, here's what I would like to put on the agenda:

1) A statement, from the OGB, repudiating Sun's decision to update the 
homepage with disregard to the review process.  I don't think anything 
elaborate need be done, something simple would be sufficient to send out 
to opensolaris-announce.

2) Discussion with Vincent (who I hope will be present, as the OGB 
liason) as to whether Core Contributors to the Website CG who aren't Sun 
employees will be able to have access to edit the opensolaris.org/os 
homepage.

cheers,
steve
