Since the meetings updates are being syndicated elsewhere, future
announcements should include the meeting mins with potential references
entirely within the announcement itself and not just the wiki links.
That should help lazy^W busy people read the updates more easily.

It would nice to get a qualified roadmap for Fedora published in
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FC6Future with developers assigned,
specifications, status etc

Is this bouncer etc? Instead of a intern we can make it a Google SoC
project if thats applicable to the rules.

The way other meetings do this is have a list of items in
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Board/Schedule with priority, short
explanation and review it one by one during meeting time and publish
meeting mins and/or logs after that.

For example, 

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras/Schedule
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ambassadors/Schedule

We can follow the same schedule pattern too.
