LWG is now in support mode and no real issues to deal with.
A fair number of people (6) has jumped in to help with testing and coding.
Rebuild group is moving forward with rebuilt script. More and more tests are passing (93%). Most test that are failing are dealing with relations.
Matt ran through some aspects looking ahead at what will happen during and after the redaction bot run.

Draft mission statement for us to review:
“FIWG will develop a profile of OSM visitor needs, to justify and support future design efforts. By interviewing consumers of OSM data and developing personas for possible future site visitors we'd like to attract, the group will describe the needs of three classes of user that OSM should serve: the existing mapper community, a growing audience of data consumers, and an as-yet underdescribed population of curious bystanders.
From this profile of visitor needs, FIWG will identify (a small/fixed number of?) key metrics which can be used to guide future efforts to improve First Impressions and evaluate the success of these efforts.”
MT welcomes the idea of the new working group, and [Matt & Andy] will handle the formal application to form the working group via email.
