+
+We had our [weekly triage meeting] on 2019-10-10. You can find the
+[minutes] on the [lang-team] repository; there is also a [video
+recording] on YouTube. This week we had a number of folks who have
+been working on const evaluation in attendance, which gave us an
+opportunity to dive into some of the complexities involved there. We
+also discussed how to make the const evaluation effort into a
+"shepherded project", a concept that we are still actively developing
+(see my blog post on [Shepherding 3.0] for the general idea).
+
+## Other updates on shepherded items
+
+This is our current list of "shepherded items", which are things we
+are tracking week to week. We're still evolving the shepherding
+system. Hopefully we'll soon have links for all of these to a good,
+representative place that explains the overall status and roadmap. All
+in good time.
+
