Agenda

API package names

What is the API plan for p2 in the Galileo release? If we are going to have API then we should consider creating API packages sooner rather than later. Or at least starting to review the current provisional packages. This process will take a long time so getting it early on the schedule would be good.

Wiki cleanup

The [Equinox p2] wiki has quite a bit of stale information. Now would be a good time to clean it out and start a new round of issues, planning, milestone info etc.
