:wave: Hi everyone!

The Steering Council has been meeting on a regular basis since the start of 2025. We’re working on finding the best ways to communicate what we’re focusing on and what we’re discussing in those meetings.

This thread will be updated when we post new meeting files to our GitHub repo. The agenda from the meeting will be posted here, but you’ll need to visit the GitHub repo to view the details. This allows us to maintain 90% of the content in a single place.
