-Discussing the next activities for documentation
2020 Documentation Lead update: 
   Started using the Trello board to organize work
   Participated in GSoD 2020 - has been a positive experience for technical writers
   Saw the number of people attending the Documentation Team calls increased
   Kept on schedule with the Documentation Calls
   Decrease in community participation taking up the tasks
   Some applicants for GSOD did not continue after notification
    
 2021
  Replicate Monica's experience and have more GSOD applicants continue contributing after projet announcements

  •   Personal contact contributes to this significantly - encourage and support 

  •   Project aligned with interests 

  •   Check in during month following GSOD notification - onboarding for non-finalists

Have University or Design session on how to contribute to documentation - both technical writing skills + opportunities
Trello board: review the goals and set 2021 goals once new documentation lead is identified
