* "Content owner": decided to go with Galen's suggestion of Content Editor for this role
* Blogs
* Calendars
* Evergreen map and directory functionality

Working draft of Content Editor volunteer responsibilities:
* Actively seek out and/or add content for their sections
* Assist folks who want to contribute
* Keep an eye on any updates to their section and, as needed, improve any updates supplied by another contributor
* Handle any periodic or time-sensitive updates (for example, the person or persons who edit the downloads section would be on point whenever a release is cut)

Old to-do items:
* Jim: create a new role called blogger (blog)
* Jim: will create an editor field on each page to identify who is responsible for what part of content (content management)
* Alexey: start working on Web Team content (content migration)
* Jim: will look at options for adding a left-menu

New to-do items:

* Review current official and unofficial pages for content migration needs
