== General todo ==
Please don't edit this pad with trolly stuff; if you do, you will force us to use a private pad again, even though it will make us sad.
== Reminders ==
* Remember to "/me status: foo" at least once daily. * Remember that our current code reviews should be done by end-of-week. * Make sure you are in touch with everybody with whom you are doing work for the next releases
* Remember to fill up actual point when you finish a task (as well as "fix" the estimate when starting the issue). * Add planned PTO to the calendar https://storm.torproject.org/shared/ISA5L5nH0Xu88iqSCx9ZjCXYSMKOBTdbUeWarbdG...
