When I asked the question, here was my thought. When I'm in a
meeting, I'm in with my laptop. I listening to the discussion for
issues that affect me and my job, I'm accessing our bug depository
(Rational ClearQuest) for similar issues. I'm taking notes on what
are going to be Release Note impacts, I'm asking if problems are
customer facing, I'm doing all kinds of tech writer stuff.

How can I do this stuff if I'm paying attention to what Bill, Marsha,
Harry, and Sally said, what Mary and Marsha agreed to, what
everyone's action items are, who agreed and disagreed with a
resolution, etc.

When I'm in a meeting, my whole thought process is different if I'm
doing meeting minutes from when I'm running a document project.
