[sv-champions] Champions conference call May 21st, 2009 -- agenda

Hi Champions,

Below is the set of mantis items that are up for a vote by the Champions.
We will be meeting this Thursday, May 21st, 8am PST.

If you have time, it would be good if you could send out your votes before
the meeting. That way I can combine the results before the meeting starts.
That would make the meeting go quite a bit faster.

I will attempt to send another version of this later today that has more
details.

Neil
