I'm unsure if I'll have internet access around this time as I'm
travelling today. Incase I can't make it, I briefly want to say that
we should set up a wiki page for non-urgent janitor tasks and try to
make a list of those tasks which we think could easily be handled by a
new contributor to OE/Yocto. That would hopefully make it easier for
people to learn the ropes and get involved. If this sort of thing
already exists then I've obviously missed it.

I assume that an IRC log will be posted after the meeting, is that correct?
