I'm not aware of the issue that sparked this, but if regular reports are
a solution, I suggest that rather than mandating a bi-weekly report,
each of the relevant projects should propose a reporting schedule that
is appropriate to them.

For example, the Council meets once a month, so a bi-weekly status
update seems inappropriate (half the reports are likely to be empty,
the other half a copy of the meeting minutes which we already get).
Perhaps the Foundation would be happier with a regular three- or
six-month update, with the occasional ad-hoc update as need arises.
Whatever, the point is that each project knows best how often it
ought to communicate stuff.
