== Announcements ==
Tor 0.3.2 is now unsupported. https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/org/teams/NetworkTeam/CoreTorR...
Tor Calendar: we have a shiny new one for adding time off https://storm.torproject.org/grain/H6dQejgGAizq6MYMawwPzq/
Tor employees, please do timesheets each week, or in the worst case by the end of the month. The new schema (all network team work goes in "Network Team") should make this much faster.
== Discussion ==
* We must assign bug and CI tickets in 0.3.5; they should get fixed ASAP. - nickm
* What do we need to do to "finish up" our roadmap? I know it's a living document, but how far are we from something we can work from? -nickm Reminder for this discussion: sponsor 8 issues are priority as it is finishing at the end of the year -gaba There are a few things in the UX roadmap related to network team. Let's check that we have it on our roadmap -gaba (https://storm.torproject.org/grain/2uvMtMh7xKDubdC5np68tN/)
* Finish & validate new "minimal rotations" plan from meeting? (Idea was to define minimial versions of each rotation, and possibly drop the ones that don't actually make sense) -nickm Plan and comments: https://pad.riseup.net/p/team_rotation
* Reminder: Capacity estimation: adding actual points in the big beautiful spreadsheet from the roadmap -gaba
* Proposal to change the meeting only once every 4 weeks to a time that teor can attend. Patch party time? -gaba
