============
* We had this week's meeting on Mar 3rd. Most of the meeting discussions are summarized below (Completed
or in-progress activities section).
This was a video call and recording are available @ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AAVSHvguxWU
Meeting summary logs are available @https://meetings.opendev.org/meetings/tc/2022/tc.2022-03-03-15.04.log.html

* As we have new TC members, we checked on the weekly meeting time as per new members availability and decided
to keep the same time (considering the daylight saving change in coming weeks)

the agenda[1] by Mar 9th.

Out of 17, we have leaders for 15 projects. I have started the PTL appointments for
those 15 projects[10]. We are left with two projects Adjutant and Trove to identify the
leaders[11], if you would like to maintain either of them, please reply here or ping is on
#openstack-tc. Slawek will also start the separate email to call for these projects leaders.
