The key points discussed in this meeting were:

1. Project Board Progress:

   • The broken link checker has been implemented, and 44 broken links were identified.

2. Review of Meeting Schedule:

   • The team discussed the current fortnightly meeting schedule, which is held on Thursdays.
   • There was general agreement that the Thursday slot works well, as it helps to focus the team's efforts.
   • However, there were concerns that the 30-minute duration might be too short to cover both discussions and action items.
   • It was suggested that the meeting could be split into a collaborative/discussion session and a separate "working" meeting to address action items.
   • The team agreed to try out this approach in the next meeting.

3. Goal-Focused Mechanism:

   • The team discussed the idea of setting a specific goal, such as presenting a talk at the Ignite conference, and working backwards from that to identify the necessary actions.
   • This goal-focused approach was seen as a potentially useful way to drive the team's work.

Action Items:

1. Bring up the idea of setting aside time for action planning in each meeting and add it to the agenda for the next all-hands meeting.

Overall, the meeting focused on refining the team's meeting structure and approach to ensure that both collaborative discussions and action planning are effectively addressed.
