It would give the team a chance to have a culture, too :) Ideally that
meeting would occur before the release meeting on Tuesday (say Monday or
Friday) to help the PTL have more accurate status when the release
meeting comes.

It could also help attracting attention to Nova bugs. Most other teams
have the incoming bug flow under control, while Nova has trouble being
on top of it. There are about 10 untriaged bugs adding up every week,
with a backlog of 90. Nothing a team of 20 core developers can't
handle... with a bit of coordination.
