I understand the concern however I feel a balance has to be struck. We are aiming to provide a "SotM cookbook" but this is stalled since September due to lack of resource. Having ran 2013 in the open and published 2015 meeting minutes, my view is that you gain valuable support by good project management, breaking work down in to small chunks and providing short summaries of tasks. People are generally too busy to read reams and reams of meeting notes. I expect you often come across this in your day job ("why am I being asked this/why has someone done that - clearly they didn't read the notes"!!). I don't get project management right all the time but I'm trying to improve. Hopefully the plans for 2017 demonstrate an improvement. If there is a specific thing that you are missing then we could try to prioritise that. Just ask :-) *Rob*
