I think there's a missunderstanding here. I don't recall suggesting that
you need to add anything about "real involvement" to the list, just that
if you feel certain specifics are required around meeting format,
etiquette, and so forth, that would be useful to note down.
I don't think they're required. I'm not in any position to veto
decisions you've made. The relevant point here is that having public
meetings makes it more likely that you'll get useful feedback from
others regarding decisions you've made, and that makes it less likely
that anyone will have objections when you propose ARM as a primary
architecture. If you choose to do that without making it easy for other
people to offer you advice then you're free to. I just think it'd be a
mistake.
