OT gave us the go-ahead to work with Gem for the custom resource types. I’d like to go through the “official” process we set up with Gem (an e-mail to … I forgot). Sean, we will add the Looseleaf one to the four we already have. It’ll be a great way to refine this process.

To think about:

• Should we create a 2+ member Discovery Steering Committee to plan work and manage the timeline?

  • Any volunteers?

• Should we schedule open, optional study halls that can be used for testing with a buddy, addressing/exploring issues that come up, etc.?
