Hi,
I would like to request that, even if a team doesn't have a representative at a scrum of scrums meeting, the team submit a written status report that can be included in the SOS notes. I read these SOS notes to try to keep up to date with the many technical and product developments in the enormous Wikiverse, and it is helpful to me to read high level summaries from each team in the SOS notes.
Thanks,
