Hi Badri!
Yep, that was intentional
We try to keep board discussions and materials as open as practical,
following the earlier board resolution that prefers public discussion over
private whenever possible. The private board list is mostly for sensitive
topics or administrivia.
Since this was just the agenda for an upcoming meeting and not
confidential, I sent it to members@ on purpose for transparency.
Kind regards,
Guus

Hi! I got a little confused. Did you mean to send this
to board(a)xmpp.org
(rather than members)?
