Project planning board review

Our GitHub Projects boards show the status of issues currently associated with each release milestone and serve as the primary planning overview for upcoming releases:
Discussion
After a few minutes of WebEx confusion, we eventually managed to connect via Zoom.
Roger has been focused on testing the Markdown plug-in integration and preparing an HTML5 customization, which should yield a new docs topic to augment those provided in v2.4.1 for #118, as well as a DITA-OT Day presentation and a new sample plug-in.
Discussion focused on the perennial topic of revising the top-level documentation structure as planned in #121.
Shane has not made much progress since the last call, but hoped to find time over the weekend to continue implementing the suggestions from the August 26 brainstorming session. He'd certainly like to get the changes ready in time for the 3.0 release if at all possible.
We agreed that the opportunity is certainly good, and that it would be nice to include at least the high-level changes for 3.0, and refine the structure further in subsequent maintenance releases.
Discussion will continue on the #documentation Slack channel and #121 issue thread as new content is available for review.
