Action items
Decisions
- Remove “Course Operators” persona. Please review PR here: https://github.com/openedx/docs.openedx.org/pull/562
- Second meeting of the month will be a “working” meeting. Topic of September’s:
* Spend 15 minutes finalizing definitions of educator, developer, and site operator
* Spend remaining time going through empty pages and figuring out what we might want to add - eg, some headers prompting people to contribute content, a message like Wikipedia has like "this is a stub! Please contribute!", or remove the page. We might consider adding additional page stubs as well. We'll focus first on Site Operators, so if you have a more technical team member you can bring, that would be awesome!
