Pre-reading materials ready for Board meeting

[Andrew van der Stock]

Hi Board,

I've published the pre-reading materials for the Board, including a video from Charity CFO on our financials for March. 

https://board.owasp.org/meetings/202604.html

I'll be updating the minutes in the next 24 hours for March's meeting as I still need to summarize the minutes and get Marisa's approval.

thanks,

Board,

I've prepared the minutes and updated the attendance registrar with the assistance of MS Copilot. As per our forthcoming AI policy, I am responsible for its output, so I have reviewed the output of the minutes, but I think it's an improvement over our previous minutes, which were literally just a summary of the motions and who voted for them. Copilot included a table of action items from the meeting, which is very helpful. 

@Marisa Fagan Please review the minutes. To assist with reviewing the votes, I've included timestamps in the video so you can confirm them. I've confirmed them manually as well. 

thanks,

Andrew

Hi Andrew,

Thank you for preparing and sharing the minutes.

I’ve reviewed them and have a few minor observations:

1. 2026 OWASP Foundation Budget Motion

    The last names of absent directors appear to be missing.

2. Motion to Amend Signatory Policy

    While the result is noted above, the standard motion result summary at the end of the voting list is not included. For consistency with prior motions, it would be helpful to include this.

3. Action Items Section

    The addition of action items is appreciated. However, the status column appears to reflect updates made after the meeting rather than a snapshot at the time of the meeting. To maintain clarity and consistency, I recommend either removing the status column or capturing status updates in subsequent meeting minutes.

Best,

Ricardo

Hi Andrew,

Can we also include an update about "Insurance and Finance Operations"? Would like to know about the runbooks, new credit card and insurance renewal. 

Regards

Ashwini

Andrew,

For the April meeting page, can we also add that the meeting will adjourn to an executive session to discuss a personal matter? We will have Grant joining to discuss the compliance matter.
