[p2pu-dev] Notes tech call 2012-03-21

[Jessy Kate Schingler]

hey guys,

there notes are great! i wonder if they could be formatted a bit more, so
that it's easier to see what topics were discussed at hone in where things
matter to different people. at the moment it's very hard reading on the
eyes with everything at one indent level, so i only catch things of
interest/relevance by chance mostly.

my 2c :)
