Georg:
1) We need to coordinate the network audit for our switch to ESR 52 <-

Nick:
1) Has been doing measurements with AFL for Sponsor4 to reduce directory

it's gotten a bit gnarly. Hoping for the best.

Alison:
1)  Lots of planning for the Tor Meeting. Will be reaching out to folks
individually about potential agenda items and intra-team meetings.
2)  Tor glossary is up here for now (Colin is still working on internal
linking):
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/community/glossary
next step is for it to go onto the support portal.
3) UX and community teams are working on the support portal together;
Alison and Linda will continue this in Seattle next week.
4) New translations have been merged into the Tor Browser manual.
5) Trainings: planning a lot of both LFP and Global South workshops
right now.
6) Community council guidelines are in the discussion phase right now
and will go up for a vote after next week. When that's completed, we
will vote to keep the existing social contract or modify it with some of
the suggestions we received from our greater community.

Mike:
1) Misc.

Arturo:
1) ooniprobe now support 4 languages: English, Spanish, French and
Italian. New mobile app will be released tomorrow or next week.
