... IMHO is the most important thing for a start.

Further: I find the table at the top more confusing then helpful; it
will also get hard to get that into a text form to cut'n'paste it into a
mail while keeping it readable. A format that is close to the later
parts of the report (Action Items, Action Items, by person) in a kind of
wiki-style (which most of us are used to already) would be easier
afaics. E.g. something like this:
"""

The most important information are obvious here, while that not that
important details (who said it when) is still there.
