Hi

At our last community meeting we agreed that the next meeting would be on Sunday 2nd February, and that we would combine it with a Hack the Space day. Space hacking is planned to start at 10am with the community meeting from 1pm to 3pm.

Please come along for both if you can!

Given we haven't come up with a boilerplate agenda for the community meetings, I wondered what folk think of this one:

* Roll call (a brief(!) run round the room for everyone to share their name)

* Review of actions from the last meeting

* Team updates (can be as short as "nothing to report" if there's nothing to report)
    * Laser-maintenance team
    * Fibre-arts team

* Somebody-should issue triage (reviewing a half-dozen issues short-listed before the meeting)

* [specific agenda items for this meeting; accompanied by the name of the person proposing them, who should give a brief overview at the start?]

* Any Other Business

Cheers,

Adrian.
