Occasional meetings are fine. BUt people should rather resort to discussing 
issues on the list as apposed to bringing everyting to a meeting. There is a 
tendancy on the team to move everything discussed and not agreed on IRC to a 
meeting for decision. This is not good. Items cannot/should not be discussed 
and decided in meetings unless absolutely needed.

In addition, I wish to reiterate that the focus should be on writing content. 
The targets are set at DocteamProjects and yet it seems that people are all 
to easily refocused at the smallest pimple.

I call again for people to focus on writing the docs and ignore the noise.
