+# Review of actions from last meeting.
+
+- Dan remains not in a position to work on [[!issue 22]] which is fine, it can
+  wait until he is able to help. We're carrying this action
+
+- Daniel to file an issue to create issue templates based on
+  <https://third-bit.com/2021/01/18/how-to-write-a-memo/>. We're
+  carying this action.
+
+
+# Review of the iteration that has ended
+
+We've been busy with life and work and other projects this iteration,
+so we didn't get everything done for [[!milestone 23]]. There's
+lib/files work, and command line interface refactoring that may be
+carried over.
+
+We did achieve:
+
+- [[!issue 153]] - Subplot's source tree has a lot of subplots now -
+  should that be cleaned up?
+- [[!issue 157]] - Implement directory handling in lib/files for
+  Python
+- [[!issue 159]] - Implement directory handling in lib/files for Bash
+  - there doesn't seem to be a lib/files for Bash; issue open to be
+    discussed in this meeting
+  - closing since there are no Bash libraries yet
+- [[!issue 108]] - tried again to test an older Subplot with the
+  current Subplot, and found a new blocker
+  - issue still open; we'll discuss it in this meeting
+  - we'll wait until we have a single subplot binary, issue 164, which
+    will have the resources built in
+ - [[!issue 167]] - Rust lib/files "directory exists" step functions
+   don't check the path is a directory
+
+# Review of the repositories
+
+There were no pending merge requests for subplot-web. There is a WIP MR
+for some work Daniel is doing in subplot.
+
+There were no extra branches in subplot-web.
+
+# Issue review
+
+We created the `current-goal` issue label to mark issues relevant to
+the current goal.
+
+We reviewed all issues and updated them based on discussion.
+
+
+# Current goal
+
+Our current goal is to get Subplot the software and project into such
+a shape that we feel confident that we can ask a few people to give it
+a proper try. This requires for Subplot to have releases that are easy
+to install, tolerably easy to use, and to have at least some
+rudimentary documentation aimed at beginners.
+
+# Plan for next iteration
+
+We created [[!milestone 24]] for the iteration starting now and ending
+in two weeks on 2021-03-13.
+
+We picked the following issues to work on for Lars:
+
+- [[!issue 166]] - daemon.py busy-waits for port to be open
+- [[!issue 162]] - Change ./check to treat Rust warnings as errors,
+  with an option to override that
+
+For Daniel:
+
+- [[!issue 168]] - Running ./check modifies subplotlib/tests/files.rs
+- [[!issue 164]] - Refactor CLI into single subcommand binary
+- [[!issue 161]] - Use git-testament for versioning
+- [[!issue 116]] - Subplot documentation needs to explain scenario
+  language more effectively
+
+Up for grabs if anyone has time:
+
+- [[!issue 22]] - PlantUML jar and java locations should be
+  configurable
+  - depends on Dan's availability.
+
+# What do we need to persuade others?
+
+Nothing new came up.
+
+# Actions
+
+- Lars or Daniel to schedule pairing session with Dan to help him work
+  through [[!issue 22]].
+
+- Daniel to file an issue to create issue templates based on
+  <https://third-bit.com/2021/01/18/how-to-write-a-memo/>.
