Manifesto, current progress:
William has put some stuff up on the 'duke manifesto proposal page'. Just under 13 points which came out of the groups.
Need to get to a point where a reasonable compromise for a manifesto can be reached as soon as practicable. This won't be the end of the process, rather it will be a point where a snapshot can be taken for moving towards the election.
William will try to encourage folks on the forum/IRC/etc to comment on the wiki.
Exec members will also review the proposals and provide an opinion on each point. William will collate the results and report on them.
William left the call.
