## Agenda
### [Primer](https://github.com/dcmi/dctap/blob/main/TAPprimer.md)
* Added this sentence to Primer in shapes area: "In the most simple DCTAP, one that contains only one set of properties and constraints, that profile can be understood as representing a single, default shape. In this sense all DCTAPs can be said to be made up of at least one shape."

* Added this to the section on labels in the Primer: "Properties are typically given labels in the vocabulary where they are defined and vocabularies are, by design, separate from application profiles. A profile in DCTAP may also provide labels for properties, though such labels are valid only for the profile and do not change or override the globally valid label defined in the vocabulary."

### Cookbook
* Added section "[DCTAP Basics](https://github.com/dcmi/dctap/blob/main/DCTAP-Cookbook.md#some-dctap-basics)"
    * Relation of DCTAP entries to base vocabulary
    * Exception for property labels
    * All DCTAPs have at least one shape (which may be a default shape)

### Minutes
We went through a number of issues and marked them as 'due for closing'. Karen will review these and close them.
