No worries. The instance actually resolved itself without us needing to
know the answer, so it became less pressing.

I think it's clear (but DMB members yell if it's not to you). Is the
quorum up to the specific board to determine?

Can you please document this somewhere in public? Probably on the wiki.
It's advice that applies to all teams and so would be good for everybody
to be consistent.

Thanks for deciding.

Cheers,
