 * Where : The meeting will be an audio WebEx call. To join the meeting using your computer, follow this link. Linux, OS X, and Windows platforms are supported, but you might have to install the WebEx plugin to connect. Please test that you can successfully use WebEx in advance of the meeting, so that the meeting can begin promptly. Alternatively, you may join the meeting via telephone, using one of the worldwide toll-free numbers listed on that page; however, this will limit your ability to participate, and is strongly discouraged. There's a secondary IRC channel in ; instructions for joining it are at m:IRC office hours.
 * Agenda :
 * Release criteria review (10 mins)
 * Resolved blockers review (10 mins)
 * Nominated blockers review (30 mins)
 * Other business (10 mins)


 * Pre-reading :
 * Please review the release criteria ahead of the meeting, look at the nominated and existing blockers, and think about any tasks you think we are missing. Anyone with an account can nominate a blocker, even if you cannot attend a meeting. To nominate a Phabricator task as a blocker, just add an "Associate Project" comment on the task against the "§ VisualEditor Q3 Blockers" project.

Looking forward to seeing you there!
