Could you please explicitly list the proposals? Google Docs is a living, |
| 10 |
changing entity. |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
Also please add a Next Action section (which I describe below). If you |
| 13 |
cannot answer it, please ask on-list for clarification. |

Heh, I didn't realize EAPI=3 wasn't technical. =) |

Could you make it explicit what the next actions are here, and who will |
| 40 |
do them, although the portage code thing is mentioned above? |
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
I'd like to see a Next Action section for any item that isn't totally |
| 43 |
completed. If we can't answer it with a Who, What, and When, then we |
| 44 |
haven't accomplished anything in a way likely to produce results. |

Well, because it was frankly OT at the time, not brought up for the |
| 53 |
agenda, nobody had time to plan, there was no goal for the discussion, |
| 54 |
etc ... I wouldn't go blaming this on lack of time. |
