welcome to hang out. (rbergeron, 18:14:40)
* Today's meeting is not going to involve "make a decision," and I
suspect that "timeline for a decision" will probably be omething we
need to take up on the mailing list. (rbergeron, 18:15:19)
* If you have not read what the user base definition is, or aren't
familiar with it, please read it before having a spherical cow, man.
