* Under-loved areas of the codebase (Michael M)
+ concern that we can't execute quickly on this
+ seems to me the ESC should be recommending areas that are un-loved
in the code, and ranking them by which are not going to get loved soon.
+ brainstorming next-week instead ? (Cloph)
+ lots of people on holiday
+ how do we feel about a wiki page to collect this stuff ? (Caolan)
+ sounds good (Michael)
+ endangered species kind of list (Caolan)
+ would allow non-ESC members but experts in their own field to have their say
AI: + will create a wiki page for this before sending the minutes (Miklos)
+ is it an indication - we're going to drop the feature ? (Olivier)
+ concerned re: Math & Base - perhaps Draw
+ no - the opposite (Miklos)
+ we know it is useful - we want to put more resource into it.
+ help the board identify where the best places to invest are (Michael)
+ also useful for oversight (Caolan)
+ to indicate where resources can go if they are available.
+ in docs team - paying attention to base module (Olivier)
+ lots of open issues there - happy to hear we can continue to file
bugs on base as we document it.
