The last board meeting for which videos have been released on Wikimedia Commons, as part of the charity's commitment to openness and transparency, was a year ago, in April 2012.

Has there been a decision to not video any of this board meeting as well? If so, then as it has been a year since the last video was released, I suggest we make this a decision of the board of trustees one way or another, rather than this appearing to be serendipity.

I will propose at this meeting that the WMUK board now commits to publishing video of open sessions of its meetings, after review for any suitable redactions, with the intention that this fulfils its commitment to access for those unable to travel to the meetings, acts as a firm record of the events of the meeting that the minutes can be assessed against and is a visible demonstration of the values of openness and transparency.

There are suitable meeting mics, camera, tripod in the WMUK office, and Big Blue Button is free to use which will provide an on-line video to instantly refer to, should this be preferred. All we need is staff or a volunteer to get it out of the cupboard, plug in it and switch it on and off.
