+    * embedded-hal v1.0.0-alpha.10 released

+        * e-h-bus v0.1.0-alpha.2
+        * e-h-nb v1.0.0-alpha.2
+    * New probe-run 0.3.8 out, but note some issues around defmt and reset handling
+        * https://github.com/knurling-rs/probe-run/issues/391
+        * https://github.com/rp-rs/rp-hal/issues/581
+* bors is being deprecated https://bors.tech/newsletter/2023/05/01/tmib-76/
+    * keep using bors for now?
+    * host our own bors-ng?
+    * try to use the rust-lang homu instance?
+    * use gh merge queue instead?
+    * discussed some options, will open a wg issue to track
+        * https://github.com/rust-embedded/wg/issues/671
+* embedded-hal
+    * closed PR for unbuffered uart
+        * TBC: use embedded-io for uart?
+        * if so, move to WG? remove serial::Write?
+        * https://github.com/rust-embedded/embedded-hal/pull/349#issuecomment-1499465364
+    * SPI flushing/blocking
+        * https://github.com/rust-embedded/embedded-hal/issues/455
+        * https://github.com/rust-embedded/embedded-hal/pull/456
+* team discussions deprecated May 8
+    * https://docs.github.com/en/organizations/collaborating-with-your-team/about-team-discussions
+    * there is a way to transfer to GitHub Discussions, see button on https://github.com/orgs/rust-embedded/teams/all for example
+    * however, discussions must be transferred to a specific repository, where visibility then goes by the repository access instead of whatever team the discussion came from
+    * it seems like the discussion text won't be deleted yet/soon, so no rush to act for now
+* launching-pad and the leadership council rep
+    * linked to zulip for discussions and nominations: https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/384197-t-launching-pad
+    * watch this space for further news
+
+
+## Last Week's Minutes
+
+* Announcements
+    * @adamgreig won't be running meetings for 3 weeks (until 2nd May)
+    * [`defmt-brtt`](https://github.com/datdenkikniet/defmt-brtt) (datdenkikniet)
+* Embedded HAL
+    * New serial Read/ReadUntilIdle trait, buffered/unbuffered
+        * Continued discussion
+        * Perhaps it's fine to only have buffered APIs, but should they have some way to see how many bytes are available / should it be possible to use them without blocking until data is available?
+        * Proposed closing the unbuffered PR (349), plan for only a buffered API, but not sure if that's embedded-io's Read, or something more uart-specific, or what
+    * Update SPI to new transactional API
+        * Merged!
+        * We could consider a closure-based API in the future, but
+          for now the slice transactions is the way to go.
+* svd2rust
+    * Various recent work on ordering derivedFrom fields to support the Keil/Arm SVD tools https://github.com/rust-embedded/svd/pull/220
