+- Conversations
+  - mplsCorwin: FOSSHost: okay to experiment with being a CDN, will
+    experiment with videos
+    - authenticated RTMP server to support streaming meetups from Jitsi?
+    - PeerTube?
+  - sachac: added more events to
+    [[https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/Usergroups]] and the calendar
+  - sachac: subed.el patches for splitting and merging subtitles, will
+    continue editing subtitles
+  - Podcast:
+    - Thinking about name: 
+      - Current: emacs.el podcast
+      - Emacs Weekly? Probably okay, although includes commitment to
+        actually make it weekly
+      - Amin and Gopar's Wild World of Emacs?
+    - ideas for making it visually interesting when there's no video
+    - Suggested guest: Fermin - interesting story about how he got into
+      Emacs and started making it better for PHP
+  - Making these conversations more public:
+    - Maybe start with just putting public meeting minutes somewhere,
+      like the wiki, and then figure out if anyone actually wants to
+      subscribe to it =)
+      - E-mail summary to mailing list?
+      - [[https://emacsconf.org/2020/meetings/]] announced on IRC
+        #emacsconf
+      - With long-form summary at some point?
+      - dto volunteering to help Leo (it turns out dto was also an
+        English major in his past life, and has done a fair bit of
+        copyediting)
+      - mplsCorwin can handle social media
+      - bandali: avoid perfectionism
+        - Lots of people have a hard time with this
+        - getting things out of your head = good
+        - don't let the great be the enemy of the good. Take advantage
+          of the friendly community.
+        - dto: story about local trails committee, which is kind of like
+          this
+        - Look, we can just post a rough outline, whee! =)
+    - Segments of recording? Timer in the pad can help. 
+    - Livestream with delay?
+      - Something to grow into, maybe; let's start with text and
+        possibly recording segments
+    - Maybe private part and then public part, with time notes in case
+      there are things we need to remove from the recording, keeping
+      private segment as short as possible
+      - Everyone's cool with this
+      - Discussed: Separate days for private and public meeting? Might
+        take too much time. 
+    - Guidelines for private segments: document reasons if possible
+      - Confidentiality
+      - Buzz factor: vet ideas before unleashing them? preview?
+    - Figuring out the persona/voice/feeling for EmacsConf, for the
+      meeting
+      - Hard to figure out how to communicate both excitement and
+        reserve
+      - Diversity and perspective: we're trying to figure out how this
+        comes across from the outside, without our own knowledge
+      - sachac: We could try to just dump the outline for starters, and
+        can come up with quick automation for transforming the Etherpad
+        =)
+      - Is it because we're trying to figure out the official voice for
+        EmacsConf? Is it easier to talk as individuals?
+- Next week:
+  - Leo will write a summary of what we've been doing and put it in the
+    pad, for e-mailing out
+  - Week after: public meeting/recording
