From 2019 onwards, the monthly sessions will not have any pre-defined topic for consideration.
Instead, a topic will be determined by the discussions on the mailing list and other questions
brought up in the preceding month or so. However, after each session the intention is to provide
some notes providing the most useful hints and tips, or other information, that came out of the
meeting. For this reason, only the dates are provided in advance, and links to the notes added
after the meeting.
Diaries for previous years contain links to the notes from each month.
