 ==== 2. Development Planning ====
 === Roadmapping Strategies ===
+We agreed to try the GitHub Projects interface as an experiment. If it has shortcomings, we will revisit. Demian will try populating the project from the Summit document.
 === Breaking Up Templates ===
+Demian will close 826 and will spend more time working on 829 to clean up some things and add tests.
 === API ===
+Demian will do one more review, and then we can probably merge this to master.
 === Channels ===
+Some good ideas were raised at the Summit. Demian has updated the to-do list and hopes to make progress soon.
 === Modularization ===
+No news.
 === Next ZF Version ===
+No news. We agreed at Summit to raise PHP requirement to 5.6; this will allow us to move forward.
 === Improved Use of Permissions ===
+No news.
 === Solr 6 ===
+No news. We can move forward on this soon due to Summit agreement on raising Java requirement to 1.8 and using new "download Solr dynamically with Phing" technique.
+=== Last Call for Deprecation Objections ===
+If no one objects, we will remove jquerymobile, built-in statistics, Google Maps support, and the BeanShell example scripts very soon.
 === Release 3.1.1 ===
-The first bug fix release should go out soon. How about 10/31?
+The first bug fix release should go out soon. We will release on 10/31.
+=== Praise ===
+General call for positive quotes about VuFind to update the website; existing quotes are many years old. Demian suggested checking Judy's Charleston Review article for useful quotes.
+=== Other Front End Updates ===
+== "One search box" proposal ==
+There has been some discussion about whether we should switch from classes to ids on search boxes now that we have only one box. This offers some minor performance benefits but may break some compatibility (though we couldn't find many people taking advantage of two boxes in the wild). For now: cautious approach, keep classes; consider switching to IDs in future.
+== Minor Improvement to Autocomplete ==
+[[https://github.com/vufind-org/vufind/pull/830|#830]] allows users to pass a static list of values to the autocomplete library and match against that, instead of using AJAX. This is not used for any native VuFind features but may be valuable to some local customizations. Documented in the pull request and the [[https://github.com/crhallberg/autocomplete.js|separate autocomplete repo]].
 ==== 3. Institutional Home ====
