Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'd say most of those things are
engineering tasks that would have been dealed by the Core Cabal in the
past. So these things maybe should be discussed in "pre meeting
meetings" (e.g. Live-CD meeting, release team meeting) and then reported
to the Core Cabal successor, which is FESCO, and not the Board.

Of course the Board is free to get involved in those Live-CD/release
team/FESCo meeting if it's a big picture task where the Board is
interested in helping getting it done; or even bring it up in a Board
meeting itself if needed.
