Please anyone feel free to edit the agenda or make suggestions if I have missed anything as well.

[GeoffreyBooth]

Can we also discuss #160? I know it’s about creating a PR against the current implementation rather than the new one, but I feel like the work that goes into it will very likely find its way into the new implementation as well.

[guybedford]

@GeoffreyBooth sure I've added it on as another discussion item. I was under the impression it was discussed last week, or did time run out?

[SMotaal]

Sorry for the last moment... I just added modules agenda item #173

[guybedford]

@SMotaal sure we can include this.

[SMotaal]

It seems not everyone in attendance listed themselves in the minutes... Does anyone have a list so we can mention them here to get it done?

[SMotaal]

The following names were added to the minutes (FYI if you are mentioned):

• @ljharb
• @zenparsing
• @Fishrock123
• @robpalme

[guybedford]

That seems right to me, thanks.

[rubys]

I was present. Will check the minutes when i get back home
