This is a transcription of handwritten meetings notes, done in 2020. No typewritten version is known, and in this era, it seemed typical to take minutes by hand and then type up an official version. Therefore, this version should be considered unofficial. The notes are rendered as close to verbatim as is reasonable, except for notes in square brackets, e.g. "[sic]".
