[2018-11-21] Reading the Fedora 30 crystal ball

Hi all! This week’s CommOps meeting recently came to an end. This week, almost all of our discussion focused around what we want to accomplish in the Fedora 30 release cycle. The full meeting minutes are below, but a new thread will be created to share what we’re thinking and open up a chance for feedback.

Thanks everyone for coming out! For those celebrating, have a happy Thanksgiving. :turkey: :shallow_pan_of_food:
