Our Confluence Wiki is starting to get disorganized at the top level. What are some ways that we can better organize things?

Nico: Could ask people to help move their content or just move it ourselves

Steve: Could try to use the Gov* (Specs, Test, etc)

Decision: Wes to reorganize and share on Slack/PC for people to complain

Proposal to change cadence to every two weeks

Nico: Moving to the TC meeting time on the weeks when the TC is not happening
