<p><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">In my now 40+
conference and video calls with various stakeholders in the OSM
community, both local chapters and corporate members of the
Advisory Board have asked, in various ways, how to improve
communication between them and the board, and several expressed
surprise that the board chair took the time to reach out to
them. This initiative is a partial response to that input. It
does not mean that the Advisory Board members may not also ping
me or other board members on their own initiative. It is simply
one mechanism the board wants to use to improve communication.
If you something harmful in this initiative, I am all ears.<br>

I'm confused. What's the point of the Advisory Board <br>
(<a href="https://wiki.osmfoundation.org/wiki/Advisory_Board"
