Meeting Notes

Design Issues

General areas with unresolved design issues should be put here.

General

Architecture Features

Documentation

Documentation which is useful for developing m5, as apposed to using it, should go here. These might actually be better off in the main documentation section as long as they describe something stable. As issues in the above section are resolved, the solutions should be documented and put here.

Proto Documentation

Documentation in development should go here.

Random Bits

Programming Bugs
