@Satsuma I found this hidden in the Board Calendar event description:

Leftover questions will be combined and posted as weekly Q&A threads in the ⁠#questions-answers channel, starting two weeks after the most recent public meeting.

(It's also in the OTW Discord rules, but I think it was edited in.)

@runpunkrun well thats interesting? and makes the recent post in that they're committed to answering "at least 10 questions" during the meeting slightly more sensical

@Satsuma It sounds promising! That way all (?) the questions get answered, even the less popular ones.

It also seems to explain the statement about the server remaining "open after the meeting for questions and answers." Though probably it's only for getting answers to questions rather than asking them.

@runpunkrun yeah i’ll be surprised if they let us keep asking questions haha

this does create a kind of odd dynamic where, between the “you can only ask q’s during meetings but we’ll keep answering them after” and the specific formatting requirements for questions, audience members are heavily incentivized to pre-prep any questions that come up between meetings and then just log in and immediately start submitting them regardless of meeting content

@Satsuma I mean, that's what I've been doing all along--coming to meetings with my questions already prepared. It was the only way to get in a question in those last final minutes before the discussion got hopelessly derailed into German copyright law or whatever.
