Our notes are in the etherpad [1], but as part of the "Write it Down” theme for Oslo this cycle I am also posting a summary of the outcome here on the mailing list for wider distribution. Let me know if you remembered the outcome for any of these modules differently than what I have written below.

Feature development on code declared ready for graduation is basically frozen until the new library is created. You should plan on doing that work in the new oslo.service repository, which should be showing up soon. And the you describe feature sounds like something for which we would want a spec written, so please consider filing one when you have some of the details worked out.
