I know a 2 hour meeting is a big block of time, but given the people who will be present I belive it is vital that we use this time to make decisions so that people building different parts of the program can begin their individual tasks. These decisions will require discussion, so hopefully we'll have enough time to clear blocking decisions. The PMs will then be in a position to track and report on our progress.

If you have any questions before the meeting, don't hesitate to private msg me on Zulip. If you think I've missed a topic that we should consider, private msg me.

NOTE: this meeting will be recorded for use by this group only. It will be password protected and available soon after the meeting. Private msg Jan if you need the password.
