## Attending

- Jubilee
- Caleb
- Jacob

## Agenda

0. Const eval checked?
1. Renaming the repo
2. Roadmap to nightly

## Resolutions

0. Resolved, now to:
    - add functions that it enables
        - Jubilee: gather, scatter
    - cleanup other implementations?
1. No objections, ask... Mark probably?
2. Process:
    - Vector type experiment?
    - Rename repo
    - PR with `git subtree add`
        - See https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/70651 for reasoning
        - Briefly: Subtrees are "sub-repo by value", easier to diff in 1 PR
        - Submodules are "sub-repo by reference", require multiple PRs for 1 change
    - aim at `library/portable-simd`, next to e.g. `library/stdarch`
