Aug 21 Updates

• Action items:
  
  1. (Som) write up the townhall planner in the proposed format
     -- Outreach group proposes to TSC that the August townhall be postponed to September 
     -- This will allow more participation
     -- We plan to talk about the Magma Starter kit and at least one user story from Wavelabs
     
     
  2. (Som) Create a one-pager for items that will be a 'Magma Community Edition' starter kit
     -- MagmaCommunityEdition - Starter Kit Overview - Google Docs
     -- TSC, should we consider renaming v 1.9 to MCE 1.0? (Magma Community Edition v 1.0)
     -- Pano - marketing support for previous releases? There were blog posts for 1.8, 1.7., 2.0 would deserve a press release and blog post. Som - starter kit would deserve a webinar, Pano - better to coincide with major version release. 1.9 blog update, 2.0 larger release (blog, pr, technical brief, webinar). Som 2.0 1-1.5 years away
     -- Som - starter kit is an important piece that will help community adoption.
     -- Aim to acheive consensus next week. 
  3. (Som) check with LFC team for availability and support for the Townhall on 8/29
     -- LFC team was available for 8/29. Shall check for Sept availability
