parties has been these have been some of the best examples of how to get
things done in Ubuntu and Gnome in a long while and I for one vote on
full screen and start to end. However since some may be bandwidth

I think the arguement is valid in either direction and so I vote that we
should be using the opportunity to establish this Teams contributions.
