+
+<p>Regarding EclipseCon talks: we have received three (3) proposals for our one
+(1) panel slot and twenty-five (25) proposals for our six (6) long talk slots.
+Some of criteria that we will apply in evaluating these proposals includes:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li>Avoid overlapping topics in our subset of the program; definitely not more
+ than one long talk per project/topic.</li>
+ <li>Avoid overlapping topics in the entire EclipseCon program.</li>
+ <li>Be specific in our comments about what we like and dislike in the
+ proposals - not just "I like it".</li>
+ <li>Public votes are not as interesting to us as public comments - voting is
+ not as transparent as comments.</li>
+ <li>EclipseCon attendees include both returning alumni (such as ourselves) and
+ new first-timers. The first-timers may want to learn about things that we
+ have already heard before, thus we should include a mix of basics (talks we,
+ personally, might not want to attend because we've heard it before but would
+ be interesting to newcomers) and cutting edge new issues (for the jaded
+ alumni).</li>
+ <li>If an Eclipse project is not very active (code, users, newsgroups, etc),
+ then it is less likely to draw an audience and thus is less deserving of one
+ of the limited long talk slots.</li>
+ <li>Eclipse projects that are more mature, i.e., have more working code to
+ show and talk about, are more deserving of a long talk slot. New projects or
+ projects that are more "plans and slideware" are mostly too early
+ to attract a long talk audience.</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p><b>ACTION ITEM: </b>[All] Read, comment, and roughly order all the proposals
+for next week's call.</p>
+
+<p>The ECESIS and Laszlo Archive Reviews are tomorrow. There has been no
+response on the ECESIS lists and there have been two responses on the Lazlo
+lists [<a href="http://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/laszlo-dev/msg00018.html">1</a>,<a href="http://dev.eclipse.org/newslists/news.eclipse.technology.laszlo/msg00245.html">2</a>]
+- both by people who are not project members. The email to the project leader
+bounced and there has been no response by any of the project members.</p>
+<p>Website school will be held again this week. The last one has spawned a
+number of email conversations and some progress on updating the websites. Ward
+observed that a "information debugger" would be useful to help people
+fill out the XML file.</p>
+<p>The Technology PMC unanimously approves the proposal to move PTP to the Tools
+PMC.</p>
+<p>The five new Technology projects were allocated to mentors (two new ones now,
+plus potentially three new ones at tomorrow's review).</p>
+
+<p><b>ACTION ITEM: </b>[All] Contact your new mentored project and introduce
+yourself.</p>
