Below is the proposed agenda. Let me know if anybody would like to propose
any additions or changes.
We also need to discuss a venue. PMC members now span three continents, so
monthly face to face meetings are a wee bit impractical. I can arrange a
diali n, but that largely isn't scalable. Jon has suggested IRC which I'm
favorably inclined to. Among other things, it can facility automatic
recording of minutes.
We also need to pick a time and a recurring schedule that most people can
make. 100% attendance of PMC members will not always be possible, but I'd
like us to pick a time that doesn't preclude anybody from attending.
Something like 19:00-20:00 GMT has worked for similar other meetings for
me. It is after working hours for the UK and Europe, and before working
hours for Austrailia, but it gives most people an opportunity.
Finally, we need a preferred day. Board meetings are the third Wednesday
of every month. I'd like to pick a schedule that allows status to be fed
into the board in a convenient manner. I'd also suggest avoiding Fridays
as those times are actually Saturday morning in Austrailia.

5. Subproject status
Note: in the long term, the way I would like to address item 3.2 above
is to assign PMC representatives to monitor each subproject, and would
like to give each an opportunity to discuss issues, status, and
progress here. What I am looking for is major events like the recent
Ant 1.3 release, upcoming Velocity release and outlook for releases
like Tomcat 4.1. Without formal assignments, I'm simply expecting
everybody to bring what they know.
6. Other changes in status of PMC members
