1. June meeting recap
- good turnout
- Scott's talk was great

- few newbies
- liked the sections in the Gnews
- no access until 6:05pm, bit of a pain
- didn't have time to set up streaming
- audio worked well - does take a bit of work to post-process due to background hum
- handed off nametags to Tatiana, worked

- Electron Workshop is a possibility, but Ben S. concerned about location
- York Butter Factory on King Street - need someone with access/membership?

4. Workshop brainstorming:
https://etherpad.wikimedia.org/p/fsm-workshop
- talked through the format, registration and various risks
Next actions:
- lock in venue - should be confirmed with Melbourne Uni in next few days
- approach mentors
- announce the event
5. Having two topics to promote works well
- handy if someone has to pull out
- can mix more/less technical
- might make it easier to atract a wider range of people
