+# Review of actions from last meeting
+
+Actions from last time, and their status are:
+
+- **DONE:** Lars (and Daniel) to label at least the
+  Sequoia-PGP blockers if not also anything else he thinks may be
+  blocking projects such as Rustup.
+
+- **DONE:** Daniel to shuffle goal3 to goal4 and create goal3 label for the
+  purpose of tracking the work we discussed around redoing metadata
+  as a separate file.
+
+- **DONE:** Daniel to file a tracking issue for the metadata work, and assign
+  it to Lars. Lars to then break down the work at some future point.
+  ([[!issue 246]])
+
+- **DONE:** Lars to set up a space for brainstorming the talk we want
+  to give.
+
+  We have the start of a skeleton of an outline of a fairly generic
+  introductory talk on what Subplot is for.
+
+- **DONE:** Lars to file an issue with details of `cargo audit` and `cargo deny`
+  and the intention to have a CI pipeline step which runs them.
+  This may include filing an issue on the docker container to add the
+  tooling. ([[!issue 245]])
+
+
+# Review of the iteration that has ended
+
+[[!milestone 38]] had the following issued closed:
+
+- [[!issue 188]] -- _Old Subplot libraries have bindings with regex that could now be simple patterns_
+
+We made little other progress this iteration.
+
+The following issues remain open:
+
+- [[!issue 180]] -- _Doesn't warn about unused embedded files_
+- [[!issue 198]] -- _Unify language handling for multi-impl-lang test suites_
+- [[!issue 229]] -- _Licensing of Subplot libraries and subplotlib needs to be clarified_
+- [[!issue 242]] -- _`subplotlib` doesn't use `build.rs` script_
+
+We moved the issues to the next milestone ([[!milestone 39]]) and then
+closed off this iteration.
+
+
+# Review of the repositories
+
+Currently open MRs:
+
+* `subplot`: none
+* `subplot-web`: none
+* `subplot-container-images`: none
+
+Extra branches unrelated to MRs:
+
+* `subplot`: none
+  - `subplot-rust` -- Daniel is keeping this around until he has
+    completed the work on [[!issue 198]].
+  - `polyglot-docs` -- Daniel is working on [[!issue 198]] here.
+  - `docgen-cmark` -- Lars is working on making docgen use cmark
+    rather than pandoc for the initial parse and processing.
+* `subplot-web`: none
+* `subplot-container-images`: none
+
+Pipelines:
+
+* `subplot`: clean
+* `subplot-web`: none
+* `subplot-container-images`: clean, and we triggered the one to build
+  a new container image
+
+
+# Current goal (goal 2; not changed for this iteration)
+
+Subplot provides a set of libraries with identical capabilities in
+each of the supported languages. Python remains a supported language.
+Rust is promoted to supported-language status. Subplot will be tested
+with all supported languages. In addition, any quality of life
+improvements which can be done shall be done. This goal will be
+considered complete when a release of Subplot has been made with the
+unified language handling support complete.
+
+
+# Issue review
+
+We had 50 open issues at the start of the meeting.
+
+We reviewed non-`someday-maybe` issues for `subplot` changed in since
+the last meeting. We made the following changes:
+
+- [[!issue 96]] -- __
+  - help wanted label
+
+We left the docker-for-subplot issue alone, and subplot-web had no issues.
+
+
+# Other discussion
+
+
+
+# Plan for next iteration
+
+We opened [[!milestone 39]] to cover this iteration, with the
+following issues:
+
+- [[!issue 180]] -- _Doesn't warn about unused embedded files_
+- [[!issue 198]] -- _Unify language handling for multi-impl-lang test suites_
+- [[!issue 229]] -- _Licensing of Subplot libraries and subplotlib needs to be clarified_
+- [[!issue 242]] -- _`subplotlib` doesn't use `build.rs` script_
+- [[!issue 245]] -- _Release process should have steps to run `cargo audit` and `cargo deny`_
+- [[!issue 247]] -- _Make release 0.3.1 or 0.4.0 of Subplot_
+
+
+# Other business
+
+- We decided to make a release of whatever is in the `main` branch and
+  label it 0.3.1 or 0.4.0, depending on whether it has breaking
+  changes or not.
+
+- We are not yet ready to file an RFP bug to get Subplot packaged for
+  Debian. It will happen after we think we won't be making breaking
+  changes anymore.
+
+- We are not yet ready to make a whole code base review of Subplot.
+  However we feel at least part of the new goal 3 will be reviewing a
+  portion of the code.
+
+- We will switch an issue based agenda when other people join the
+  meeting.
+
+- We won't be reaching out for feedback until goal 3 is done.
+
+- We discussed the possibility of and outline of a talk for FOSDEM.
+
+- Regarding the `media` repository question - we believe this is
+  premature at this point - once we are ready to write the talk
+  mentioned above, it will be time for the repository.
+
+
+# Actions
+
+* Daniel to ask other Subplot contributors about licence change
+  ([[!issue 229]]).
