[0,1] Interested people could join there! It will most probably not be a sprint but it can be a start just meeting in person. In Sweden there has started quite some momentum around Debian, I figure this meetup can be very cool to attend! > 4. Report about Debian Jr at DebConf 14 This would be nice.

I am unsure what "use ... task pages" meant. But the blends web sentinel is updated with the new repository url (which is now in git) for junior tasks.
