I like this outline too, and it also ensures that we are still
documenting important points via IRC too. So long as we actively
remember to add important notes into IRC, I see this as a good
compromise too, for people who may want to participate but are limited
by bandwidth for an audio/video call.

I suggest we make this change for the May 3rd meeting (and also adjust
our time back to 12:00 UTC, starting on April 19). I will adjust the
time in Fedocal for this now.
