Feel free to add questions.

## Minutes

Bootstrap build broken in patches: we need to fix that
- Either backport the PR onto gcc-patch-dev
- Or have Thomas figure out how to have `-Wno-unused-parameter` in the bootstrap build, which he will investigate this week

Driver/language name needs a poll to see what people want
- Either a rename
- Either the `-fi-know-what-im-doing` flag
- Poll will be sent this week to Zulip and IRC

We need to think about documenting the frontend as well.
