+In our planning meeting today, the compiler team has scheduled our
+next batch of upcoming design meetings:
+
+* On Nov 1, we will discuss "incremental dep-graph storage" (see
+  [rust-lang/compiler-team#199]), which is a plan to improve the
+  performance of storing incremental compilation data, as well as
+  reducing peak memory usage.
+* On Nov 8, we will discuss "A unified framework for dataflow
+  analysis" (see [rust-lang/compiler-team#202]), which is a proposal
+  for how an improved dataflow analysis that can help with const
+  evaluation.
+* On Nov 15, we will do a "working group review" (see
+  [rust-lang/compiler-team#187]), examining how well the working group
+  system has been working and what we might do to improve it.
