Hi, As a spare time outside contributor, it has become pretty much impossible for me to stay informed of what's happening in Servo land, since the meetings (and thus the meeting notes) have been cancelled; while few things are going over the mailing list; and the traffic on IRC is impossible to ke

I've always liked the idea of standu.ps with the IRC bot reporting. Large tasks may become tricky with standups. AIUI you ping the standups bot when you finish a task, but for long running tasks (large PRs, etc) you can't do this so easily. With statusupdates I just add an entry "worked more on X"
