It would really be awesome if John and J Mak could show up to represent the documentation and artwork effort respectively. For more information about the upcoming meeting, see: <a href="https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/Meetings" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/Meetings </a> </blockquote></div> There are many items on the agenda and some of them are not specific enough or suited for a few minutes discussion only. I'd say for all those topics which are proposed the people who step up to do something about them say so at the meeting and then they can organize specialized submeetings or start threads on the ml to flash out the idea. For ex: what to do about the wiki? 2-3 folks say they are interested on working out the goals and a plan to get there and agree to keep the ml updated by a weekly report. Same for many other topics. A meeting topic should be proposed when someone has some ideas about what to accomplish and wants other opinions, not just generic questions like "what to do wrt X?" Then after this overview meeting we can get back to some more regular (and possibly held during weekdays) meetings where few items are discussed but in detail. thanks Jani
