A minor suggestion from someone who is just a reader here - It would be helpful if the same thread title is not used every week. In particular, adding a date of the meeting will aid in searchability.
Thanks,
Risker/Anne

Using hangout was an experiment to see whether this is feasible and useful. We do not currently plan to make Hangout the default meeting mode. Observations:
- We failed to get the youtube stream to work.
- We did not come close to the 25 person limit for hangout.
- Using IRC for logging is useful. Relaying questions and notes between
IRC and Hangout works, but takes effort.
- Please give feedback about using Hangout for this kind of meeting!
No public meeting planned for next week (March 22)
