Action Items / Takeaways from Last Week

  • I didn't want to re-create the wheel so I tried to make it personal by adding a photo & just linking to Mozillians or Github. If I get a thumbs up I'll just make it public.
  • What is the bar for entry- thoughts? Should I just add anyone who has contributed in the last quarter?
• New published QMO page for Team Quarterly contributor actions
