We are currently experimenting with the notes-taking process for the weekly Marketing meeting: what content we record in the notes, and for what purpose. This iteration includes a focus on reporting team news and noting where discussion was generated in the meeting, both live and async.
Please add any comments on the related Marketing Tasks GitHub issue or in the #marketing channel on the Make WordPress Slack.
