However, the lack of a name for the group "around" the "leadership" is the real issue. 03:41:45 Owen likes the term Working Group because it implies "work" but in general does not think this is the root of the challenge. 03:41:47 Allan concurs with Matthias about changing the name as part of a larger "re-brand" 03:41:49 Langdon suggests that we allocate the issues to people who volunteer to take them rather than come to a consensus on each item in the meeting. Allan is a little concerned that the list is missing items. 03:41:51 #topic discourse vs mailing lists 03:41:53 Langdon isn't sure discourse can replace mailing lists. Allan also struggles with this idea. However, notes that maybe it could work. Owen comments that maybe it could be good because it does seem to be working for other groups and attracting users. Also noting that the mailing list seems to have 0ish traffic. 03:41:55 #topic opening up the working group 03:41:57 Jens suggests that the most important item is to expand the working group inclusion and we should focus there. Langdon concurs and suggests that all these items are about that but need to be done somewhat individually. 03:41:59 Michael closes the meeting asking people to consider the items they might be interested in getting involved in. 03:42:34 #endmeeting
