This set of minutes differs from previous minutes. Due to the freewheeling nature of the last meeting, relevant comments and activities have been associated into common topics and are not arranged in the chronological order in which they actually occurred. Numbers represent only my view of the relative order and importance of topics.
If the group agrees on the need for minutes in chronological order, it can be arranged.
