Suggestions

Simple suggestions that I hope you will consider:

1. Better (IMO) meeting template:

Meeting Notes Template

2022-04-28 Metadata meeting notes

2. Dedicated reading time in meetings, when relevant

3. Monthly email reminders dated two weeks before each meeting, including:

• A link to the last Agenda, to help your members remember what they need to be doing

• Reminder of Action Items
