+# 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.
+  In the meantime we have dropped [[!issue 22]] from `current-goal`
+  and filed [[!issue 199]] to deal with the bare-minimum needed before
+  `current-goal` is met.
+
+# Review of the iteration that has ended
+
+We made some progress on [[!milestone 29]].
+
+We achieved:
+
+- [[!issue 182]] which means that `./check` is now faster to run
+- [[!issue 193]] which means we no longer have `sp-blah` binaries.
+
+We did not complete:
+
+- [[!issue 194]] as we did not make a test release.
+- [[!issue 22]] - PlanUML and java locations
+  - we're not carrying it over to next iteration
+
+# Review of the repositories
+
+The subplot-web and subplot-container-images repositories have no open
+merge requests, branches, or failed pipelines.
+
+The subplot repository has no open merge-requests, but has one branch for
+related to running subplot tests under Rust.
+
+# Issue review
+
+We reviewed all issues last time, so we did only recent issues this time.
+
+We agreed to leave alone:
+
+- [[!issue 196]]
+- [[!issue 198]]
+
+We agreed to put into the new iteration:
+
+- [[!issue 197]]
+- [[!issue 195]]
+
+We discussed the subplot-rust branch and ended up filing [[!issue 200]] and
+putting it into the iteration.
+
+# 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 30]] for the iteration starting now and ending
+in two weeks on 2021-06-19. We put the following issues in it:
+
+- [[!issue 194]]
+- [[!issue 195]]
+- [[!issue 197]]
+- [[!issue 199]]
+- [[!issue 200]]
+
+We decided that we will both work on our two individual items before end of
+Friday 11th, so that on Saturday 12th we can do the "internal" release together.
+
+# What do we need to persuade others?
+
+We're getting close. This iteration we're going to see if we can make
+a release, and make the website a little more welcoming.
+
+# Other business
+
+We discussed issue-based agendas and decided that we would stick to our current
+process until and unless someone else is interested in joining in with the
+effort.
+
+We deferred the discussion of flaky pipelines until after this iteration.
+
+We discussed the Docker-images-with-subplot-in item and decided to [open an issue][sci-release]
+on the subplot-container-images repository about publishing an image for
+building projects which use subplot.
+
+[sci-release]: https://gitlab.com/subplot/subplot-container-images/-/issues/1
+
+# Actions
+
+- Lars or Daniel to schedule pairing session with Dan to help him work
+  through [[!issue 22]].
