Introduction to procedure

 * Create notes under your User: page e.g. User:Brendan/Notes, not in the global namespace.
 * Currently notes have been written by Frew, Mozart, Emma, Ben and Andrew.
 * A development page has been created.
 * The page instructs members of the WG to provide assertions. These assertions will provide the basis for developing our policy.
 * Positive only assertions.
 * "Not all blocks are blue" is bad. "A proportion of blocks are blue." is good.
 * Do not debate people's arguments to your assertions. The next working group meeting is for that.
 * All understood and agreed with this process.
 * Weekly meetings, with a changing day. Will be proposed soon via email.

Questions and comments

 * So assertions are limited by the terms of reference, yes? - Emma
 * Yes
 * And Brendan, you make the call as to whether something is out of scope? - Mozart
 * Yes
 * Domestic Violence against Children. Not totally clear if it's in/out of scope from what is written in TOR - Andrew
 * It is within the scope of the ToR.

Conclusion

 * Work on assertions will now begin.
 * Meeting closed.
