The random-criteria evaluation wasn’t hugely valuable; we should try doing it in series (to make everyone look through different frames) and also try cutting it to see what difference it makes
We should make a blog page about how DEFO meetings are run.
It seemed fine to not have someone taking minutes, though it did hamper figuring out how we could be more time-efficient.
That said, we could have started some of our brainstorming earlier in the discussion process (by just writing things down while talking).
It doesn’t seem worth it to have the theme known in advance (though the person responsible for providing background material should be known).
After we finish testing the randomized evaluation, we should try splitting the meeting between two weeks; the first one spent brainstorming, the second developing the chosen idea.
