An ordinary Markdown file. No signup required.
Write the purpose before adding the agenda. Name the people who can make the decision and include the evidence they need.
Separate a suggestion from a decision. Give each action an owner and a date. Record unresolved questions without pretending the group agreed.
Read the actions back to their owners. Share the agreed note and move unfinished questions into the next agenda. Remove private material before sharing.
