Don't we already do that here in openSUSE meetings?? Here's the thing, meetings should run however efficiently it is seen based on the culture. As I once said in another organization: Rules must follow culture, not culture follow rules. In other words, rules may work well in one organization, but not another. Anyway, the problem of lack of transparency is not in whether there are meetings or not, but in how things are handled. If there is a meeting, go for it. Meetings have benefits in quick discussion and consensus-building. Post the logs of the meetings when done so everyone can see it, but also post a summarization. And I DO mean summarization, not interpretation, which seems to be the habit after artwork meetings around here. For major decisions that need wide consensus, post the question to the mailing list. Don't decide everything in the meetings where those who are not able to go to meetings but are significant contributors become left out. That's a sure-fire way to fall back to the trap of elitism and small-group we're seeing lately. Make community decision-making accessible by using more than just the one medium.
