 * Our build team needs to automate DOMI branch selection rather than having to tweak the client.py every 6 weeks. {{Bug|763506}}
 * Lightning and addons.mozilla.org:
 ** We should point out in release notes that users needs to install the Lightning beta versions for the SeaMonkey releases (as Lightning follows Thunderbird 17.0.x release schedule)
 ** Problem: Linking to https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/seamonkey/addon/lightning/versions/ will provide users with versions that '''do not''' put them on the addons beta update channel; also linking to a specific version would need updating with every release

+* Daylight Saving Time starts next weekend in the U.S. (already). We are keeping with 13:00 UTC for the March 18 meeting as Europe is still on "normal" time.
+* [Ratty] KaiRo reminded us that we need to grow our contributor community. I'm not sure where we could discuss this. I have no idea on how to do this. Perhaps we can get some Engagement experts from Mozilla to give us some suggestions?
+** [IanN] might have a chat with some people and see if they can point me in the right direction.
