Unfortunately, I won't be able to make it... :-( Can you explain what the "reviewed items" list means? The other lists have suggestions regarding what to do with each item; is the "reviewed items" list what you're planning to go over during the meeting?
Also, on a semi-related note and looking forward to next year - it would be helpful if there were some guidelines of what makes for a "good" tender proposal, or one that's more likely to be considered and accepted. For example: How wide the scope should be, so as to avoid a review result of "need to split this up". Eyal On 21/06/2023 19:19, Ilmari Lauhakangas wrote:
Hi, this will be an exceptional meeting where we decide on the advice to give to TDF board of directors regarding projects to tender. Minutes will be kept in the pad: https://pad.documentfoundation.org/p/esc You can join using Jitsi here: https://jitsi.documentfoundation.org/esc TDF staff may add more items up until the meeting starts. Unfortunately due to time constraints we were unable to review every item. Any omission can be discussed in the meeting. I will run the meeting.
