Otion 1: @Sarah Farooqi Voting members to appoint representatives to work on the FigJam board for GovStack products

Option 2: @Wes Brown Comms team can work on this

While this can involve Comms, this has strategic consiquences. Thus, we need to first evaluate this before we hand this to the comms team.

@Nico Lueck not only documents. I doesnt make sense from a user perspective to only organize documents. It should include all offerings - e.g. eLearning.

How does GovStack recognise and apreciate the contribution from technical experts

@PSRAMKUMAR @Wes Brown @Margus Mägi @Nico Lueck and @Rachel Lawson (Unlicensed) shared ideas on how this can be done.

Current status

The Technical Committee need to understand what resources are available to them (people / hours / for how long?) over the next few weeks and months so that they can properly plan work for the 23Q3 release.
