Yes, I think there is definitely a need for a board-centric meeting in addition to a community meeting.  I think that's what we traditionally had with the phone meeting and the IRC meeting.  The IRC meeting was specifically so we could meet with the community.

And hopefully keep us more on track.  I've found it helpful to not only set the topics but also the amount of time that will be given to each topic so we can actually move through the meeting and not get caught up on one or two things.
