Wait to be recognized by the Chair before speaking
Respect the Chair when told your time to speak is over – this will allow us to remain on agenda, and complete the meetings in the allotted time
In the event that there are Board-confidential topics, these will be put at the end of the meeting, in Executive Session, and guests will be asked to leave. We hope to minimize these items, but they do sometimes happen. The most common scenarios in which this may happen are personnel issues, or information that Red Hat wishes to share with the Board, but is not yet public.
Muting of participants, or, in extreme situations, ejection from the meeting, is at the sole discretion of the Chair.
Meetings will be recorded, and published to YouTube (possibly with edits/redaction, as approved by the Directors). Thus, by joining the meeting you consent to have your presence at the meeting, and anything you say during the meeting, made public.
