<body><div>I suggested this. <br></div>
<div><br></div>
<div>The main reason was that there are specific LC applications pending and we didn't want to discuss those decisions specifically in public.<br></div>
<div><br></div>
<div>I think you both have a fair point though. We can discuss the general thinking about criteria for becoming a LC in the public part of the meeting. I would actually welcome input from the membership about this. The main points of discussion are, to my mind: how established must a local organization be to be eligible to become a local chapter, how can we measure this as objectively as possible, and (this has come up before, in the LC applications of Belgium and Italy) how to handle applications from organizations that have a broader scope than just OSM.<br></div>

<div>But generally, with due respect fine with the decision of holding these two in n a closed session if that's the decision of the board. <br></div>

<div>Good enough results are usually openly shared... <br></div>

<div>The closed part of the meeting contains two items:<br></div>
<div><br></div>
<div>(1) Discussion of hosting and GDPR technical preparation<br></div>
<div><br></div>
<div>(2) Processing Local Chapter applications from countries where it is<br></div>
<div> difficult to show an established track record of activities building<br></div>
<div> and supporting the OSM community<br></div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Could you please go a bit more into detail and explain why they cannot<br></div>
<div>be discussed in the open? I have difficulties to imagine why sensitive<br></div>
<div>personal information could be affected by item 2.<br></div>
