Is there any other existing place that lists examples of
decisions taken by OSMF board?
Note that I am not looking for full minutes,
just representative examples of decisions.
It is supposed to be examples of what OSMF board is doing,
not listing of recent decisions.
------------------
And is there such list of examples available
in Polish?

As these decision may well already have had consequences in one way or another during that time, it would be nice if either the minutes would be available in draft form earlier, or that there is a human readable summary available the next day (likely less work). I'm aware that both of these work against the whole concept of approving minutes, but given that there is essentially no discussion minuted (this tends to be the sticking point wrt approval), I believe such a compromise would be bearable.
