  • If urgent items, ad hoc meeting will be called on Monday.
• Meeting format:

  • overview of new format: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-release/2011-November/000471.html

  • for this to work, its going to be important that the team statuses should be on ubuntu-release mail list at least 4 hours before the meeting (ideally the night before the meeting, so folks have time to read and digest and think up questions).

  • when its your turn in the Q&A session, please paste the link to your email status in the channel, and use ".." to signal you've finished with questions/comments.

  • when someone has a question, please 'o/' to make sure we pause.
