 * Focus remains on Victoria and what support Fusion can provide to Kammy/Andrea/Simon
 * Some discussion on name change
 * Brief discussion on Fusion PDC, nothing to report at this stage
 * Just waiting on Fusion Exec to appoint/approve a PDC chair then
 * There's a need to proactively reach out to people on this: (1) forumites, (2) execs, (3) mailout

Miles: note that the 12th of every month is the approximate deadline for each monthly newsletter

Our semi-endorsed Victorian candidates' HTVs
The Victorian election is heavily regulated e.g. HTVs have to be pre-approved by the commission. So now they're up on the web forever.
