François Bissey from sage-on-gentoo: I would be happy to join some brainstorming session remotely from New Zealand. At the time of the meeting I will be 10 hours. 9am for you will be 7pm for me, and 8pm for you will be 6am the next day for me. So I may able to connect during your morning for a little bit and if you have late (11pm+) sessions.
SageMath Live
AIMS Desktop is an installer and LiveISO which includes Sagemath. Should soon be available as a public ISO. Will either recompile all Ubuntu binaries in order to be allowed to redistribute, or rebase on Debian.

Make interrupt.pyx a stand-alone package: https://github.com/sagemath/cysignals and Trac #20002
Make the Sage <-> PARI interface a stand-alone package: Trac #20238
