+
+## Topics
+
+- Kit shipping
+    - Most teams seem to have their kits
+    - TLC
+        - Dispatched today
+        - Without batteries
+        - TLC now have their own batteries which they can use
+    - MDN
+        - Delayed arrival
+        - Jake to chase UPS later in the week
+    - Stuff with James will be taken back to the container at some point
+        - Ideally leaving some Pis and other spare kit in Horsham for easy access
+
+- Mentoring
+    - Have it all in the kit team
+        - Karina will head up mentoring, not teams
+    - Robocon has some good getting started tutorials we should take inspiration from
+    - The smallpeice summer school labs also have good content to take insiration from
+    - 8 teams and 7 mentors at the moment
+        - Perhaps not worth chasing quite yet
+    - Karina to assign mentors to teams
+
+- Interrupts
+    - They're useful for things like rotary encoders
+    - Could we provide an API
+        - Probably
+        - Reset, Get, Set
+    - Could this be a tutorial instead?
+        - Good learning experience for competitors
+        - Split interrupt handling on arduino with custom arduino comms
+    - Our kit doesn't need to support everything, if we have the docs to back it up
+
+- Simulator
+    - Released and done
+    - Potentially further testing needed
+    - It would be nice to get a better test harness for it
+        - Could be used to test API as well as simulator
+
+- Meetings
+    - Move back to fortnightly until February / March time
+
