Well, I guess I heard correctly. I
suppose I want something more, but I’ll go with the group.
Feedback from my board member is
forthcoming.

Subject: Re: [eclipse.org-planning-council] Minutes from
Friday'sCallistocall have been posted (FYI)
No funding involved. The Callisto team had the idea of
providing an installer for Callisto - a small webstart or RCP app that installs
the basic platform and then opens the update manager pointing to the Callisto
update site. This (providing an installer) would be a change from our current
distribution mechanism (zips and update jars) and we want to make sure that the
Board of Directors is on-board with the idea.
We are not talking about competing with Yoxos or any other existing
solve-the-big-problem distribution mechanism.
I have updated the minutes with David's explanation:

Bjorn, can you explain again why we need to talk to our respective
Board members? I’m assuming it relates to funding an
initiative. What exactly do we want to fund?
