  * i want to keep the project a project, not a team, however, i want us to think about a council for the project. or leadership board. whatever you want to call it
  * we need to set some goals for 2009, so when january 1 hits, we can get running hard, and meet them
  * redefining who can mentor states. i think we dropped the ball on this a bit ago, and might have hurt some feelings. we should probably keep who we had previous, and re-invite those we tore from mentoring

 * Decided getting together a Leadership Board may be first step to moving forward, to discuss qualifications and appointment/election of Board members at later meeting
