[From: Tim]

Hi,

Here is a first draft of the points that will be discussed during the 
Public Maemo Community Council Meeting. As this is the first draft, 
please realize that changes may occur (and will be made public) before 
the meeting (still to be scheduled). These points are listed below 
without any commentary -- you may also expect that I will add such 
commentary during the actual meeting. The duration of the meeting will 
be approximately 60 minutes.

Feel free to reply to this message with suggestions and/or questions 
pertaining to the list. I'm happy to add and alter everything listed below.

Thanks!
Tim
