\agendaitem{discuss desired model of operation}

\begin{itemize}
 \item 
 using bugs to track issues:
        bugs for now (without any restrictions, fully visible and editable by any registered user)
        rails project for council management is under development, will check that when finished
 \item
 have a section on all meetings to check the bugs status:
        discussion about bug progress should happen on each meeting.
        each bug will have an assigned named council member that should be responsible for its tracking
        we may use bugzilla voting capabilities if deemed useful
 \item
 ability to have 2nd monthly / impromptu meetings when required:
        there can be any number of meetings during the month, with the requirement of a minimal 1 week advance notice
 \item 
 secretary / meeting chair:
        council members will replace a secretary by using google wave to create meeting summaries on the fly
        the chair of a meeting is going to be decided at the end of the previous meeting. scarabeus volunteers to be default fallback
        the selected chair is responsible for the initial email and the upcoming meeting agenda, as well as committing the summary of the meeting he chairs.
\end{itemize}
