Right now, we are barely able to take notes. It would be great to have
someone help with notes and send them out regularly. Volunteers for this
are very welcome!

We'll add this to a ticket, good suggestion.

I'm not sure how this happened since I didn't manually name it "marketing
list." Anyway, I've changed it.

Yes, but this requires a workflow adjustment too.

Don't worry, it wasn't invisible / your eyes aren't going bad. Last week I
didn't include one but forgot to remove that line from the template I
normally use it.

Yeah, that reflects the fact that we don't have a secretary or anyone who
has volunteered to help us with notes. As mentioned above, we've barely
managed to take notes. Again, if someone wants to volunteer to help with
this, that'd be awesome!

This is because our note-taking and publishing process is broken due to a
lack of manpower. Ideally, we would translate the notes to GitLab tasks and
send an email with the meeting notes, then archive the old notes each week.
Since we don't have someone who can help with this, the next best thing is
to keep the notes until someone can devote enough time to do it... even if
that's once a month or even less frequently.

As an argument in favor of full minutes rather than links, if they had
been sent to the list for the meeting of March 27th, I would have seen
the below earlier and replied immediately by mail.

I do, as well as Allan, and 8 other people. For this kind of request
it’s best not to target a specific individual who might not be
available at that time though. I would advise to ask on this list, on
the engagement channel or open a ticket against the website on the
relevant bugtracker (still bugzilla at the moment, product:website).

Who needs what?

Hi,

The recipient of your mail appears as “marketing-list
”. Can you look into renaming it in your
contact list to avoid confusion?

It would be extremely useful to send out something to the list as a
result of each meeting, either the minutes themselves or a link to the
wiki page with them. This was happening in the past but it seems it
stopped around two years ago when someone else took over meeting
organization.

Also, why does the pad keep a copy of past minutes? If they have been
moved to the wiki as they should, it would be beneficial to remove
them from the pad.
