Contributor meeting canceled today

2020-07-21 Thread Patrick McFadin
Hi everyone,

I realized I missed a huge action item for today's meeting. Jordan West
created some discussion last meeting about how to get more discussion items
brought forward. I will get back with him on that idea and email the dev
list on some new proposals. After which, I can reschedule.

Congrats to all on 4.0 beta1!

Patrick
