Subject: [RFI] Minutes of talks

Message-ID: <80ei89ui8k.fsf@missioncriticalit.com> (raw)
Hello,
For months, I now always take a PC with me when I go to any meeting, and write
everything in Emacs.
I typically write "everything" down, questions and answers.
Example:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
* Alice
Our objectives are ...
* Collegue
We can show you our architecture. It indeed does this and this ...
* Me
What's your deadline?
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
I've already tested several alternative Org "styles", such as:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
- Alice :: Our objectives are ...
- Collegue :: We can show you our architecture. It indeed does this and this
...
- Me :: What's your deadline?
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
But I did not find yet something nice enough when exported to LaTeX.
The first example is nice and easy to write, but its PDF output is a bit ugly,
having names of participants as level-1 headings.
The second one is not that easy to write (typing the terms when RET'ing), and
is a bit difficult to use when the ideas expressed by the person speaking have
to be broken into item lists -- not to speak about the problem when mixing
text and list items and back to text, all of that inside another item...
How do you write such minutes of a meeting? Obviously, I'm talking here of
writing everything down: who did say what.
Would it be a summary of the meeting, then, there's is no such problem.
Best regards,
Seb
