Agenda & Proceedings
1. Meeting called to order:


 * LeoObrst takes the chair and welcome everyone
 * PeterYim volunteers to take minutes of the meeting


 * Since we had a consensus to postpone the OOR "fork" session (which was

originally scheduled for Sep-3), the session tomorrow will revert back to a regular OOR-team conference call. We will, though, hope to take the opportunity to use that time to work up the next level of details on the upcoming 5 virtual sessions.


 * review and adopt agenda
 * note that we are running a in-session chat facility during this meeting. Please login there (with your WikiWord name.)

2. Roll Call:


 * see above


 * welcome and intro of new member(s) (as needed)

3. Status Review and Discussion:


 * Urgent issues:


 * Since work up the next level of details on the upcoming 5 virtual sessions is top urgent, and will need as much time as we can afford today, let's just focus on that for this meeting (and drop the other regular agenda items for today.)
