QT4CG meeting 107 draft agenda, 28 January 2025

Hi folks,

The agenda is a little light this week.

  https://qt4cg.org/meeting/agenda/2025/01-28.html

It would be good to get some of the blocked PRs unblocked. Also, if there are particular issues you’d like to discuss this week, please send them to the list.

I’ve added a “path to completion” item to the agenda. This is an opportunity to begin discussing the end game. So please give that some thought to.

2.4. Path to completion?

   At some point in the life of a working group, the consensus shifts from
   "there's more to do" to "we need to finish". I think the QT4CG is
   starting to feel that tension.
