People, please go to http://dev.bryght.com/t/wiki/ConferenceCallNotes
and put your Drupal.org username next to your name in the "General"
section at the bottom so that Dries can upgrade your role.

This is still up in the air. To Dos are first to Test skype with a
large number of people (like 8, or 10). Richard, can you please help
organize this. Thanks for the offer, Dries.

Yes, I think that would be good. We could update the writers guide to
submit updates/problems/etc. there. It's worth a try in any case, and
gives us a central place to organize. In fact, we can add all the
to-dos from the meeting there.

Yes, that is 6/7 on the to do list.
