[OpenID board] Location of minutes (and open board meetings)

[Drummond Reed]

Board members:

Nat Sakimura makes the point to us below (and to me offline) that we have
not been making it clear where the board meeting minutes are posted after
they have been approved. Also, a two-week lag before approval and posting is
a long time, especially for active topics.

And a third point Nat makes is particularly ironic: the Liberty Alliance
holds open board meetings (any Liberty member may attend) while the OpenID
Foundation holds closed board meetings. The exception is executive sessions,
of course, but Liberty schedules those separately.

I think we strongly consider the same policy.
