Then the stuff we should actually talk about in our first meeting (and in email beforehand):
 * Status reports

projects that exist/how we can improve/build upon them


 * Inventory of all of the stuff we're working on:
 * Analytics (OWA) (Open-source Wit' Attitude)


 * Data Warehousing


 * Code Review Process
 * If we get multiple people involved (e.g. Roan, Trevor), divide by author
 * MW Release
 * 1.17 is going to be branched soonish (next month or two?). Major things still needing review/cleanup: ResourceLoader, new installer,???
 * Last branch point was r62817 so there's some proportion of 10k revs to review


 * EPM Processes
 * Process Improvement Tools
 * Tech Writing
 * Hiring Bugmeister

 * Open Street Maps (new)
 * Community-driven development
 * Google Summer of Code
 * Installer
 * Extension manager
 * Calcey / outsourced testing
 * API Development
 * Anything missing?


 * Meeting times?  Rotate to share pain, or maintain consistency?
 * Meeting frequency?
 * Public vs private communication for the group
