Define minutes

[fantasai]

We have some requirements applying to the minutes of meetings, e.g. in
https://www.w3.org/2020/Process-20200915/#GeneralMeetings
and in the new tooling requirements
https://www.w3.org/wiki/W3C_Tooling_Policy

But we don't actually define what the minutes are or that they need to exist. Seems like such a definition would be helpful both for these sections to be able to reference, but also to help distinguish them from the transcripts being addressed by #334

<plh> Florian: since we talk about recordings of meetings, we need to define that you don't need permissions for minutes
<wseltzer> q+
<dsinger> q?
<dsinger> ack ws
<plh> wseltzer: I recommend avoiding defining the precision of minutes
<plh> wseltzer: a summary of the conversation is fine for example
<plh> ... we don't need to be prescriptive
<TallTed> "Relevant details of the discussion...?"
<TallTed> q+
<wseltzer> "summary"
<plh> florian: record of the discussion is required but you don't have to be precise
<plh> ack TallTed
<plh> Ted: how about "relevant details" ?
<plh> Florian: I'll look into the sentence more
<jeff> q+
<plh> david: are people ok with us defining minutes? (details to be worked on)
<dsinger> ack jeff
<plh> Jeff: do we really need to define minutes?
<plh> florian: we are talking recordings and automatic transcript. if we don't distinguish minutes from those, it may create confusion
<dsinger> q?
<plh> [going back and forth on whether we need this or not]
<plh> Jeff: if it becomes a point of debate and we cannot close on it, it's not worth blocking on it]
<plh> q?
<dsinger> q?
