Judging by https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Board_meeting, the board stopped meeting in March last year, and no minutes were posted from that last irc meeting. Apparently a face-to-face meeting took place on March 28 & 29, but I see no minutes nor a report from that either.
In May 2015, Bruno Friedmann then quietly announced:
"To be precise, the meeting on irc, is no more automatic. It's on demand when the need and the actors are there."
This is project meeting moderated by a board memeber and not the board meeting among the board afaik. Both of them are two different things. Correct me if I am wrong.

Really, no board meetings since March last year?
There must have been a meeting in order to pass a motion to ban Carlos from all opensuse lists and minutes of this meeting kept recording the validity of this decision.
If there was no such meeting then Carlos' ban is invalid, the board members asked to explain their actions and Carlos' participation in all opensuse fora immediately re-instated.
The Boards actions regarding moderation of the mailinglists were in direct response to direct requests to board@opensuse.org by various community members
Why was not this announced? Typically, any moderation takes place by the list owner.
In such cases it would be inappropriate to delay a response to such an issue for upto 2 weeks, so the Board doesn't wait for it's regular Board meeting and discusses and decides via email
Board meetings are typically where non-urgent 'day to day' type stuff is discussed (eg. openSUSE conference planning and preparation, TSP status, Release status) and where broader ongoing topics may be discussed (general direction of the Project, trends in community concerns mailed to board@opensuse.org, so on and so forth)
That still does not explain why the Board stopped posting minutes. It could have been simply we have not done anything.
Or to put it another way
The Board discusses and reacts to all issues raised to board@opensuse.org as fast as it can, and does not wait until the next Board meeting to start discussing or acting on such emails. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org
