Use only the notes. Separate confirmed decisions, proposed options, actions, and open questions. Preserve exact owners, dates, dependencies, conditions, and dissent. Write Owner not specified or Due date not specified where needed; do not assign work by inference. Make corrections easy by asking recipients to identify inaccuracies by the stated time, but do not treat silence as approval unless that rule was explicitly agreed. Return: subject, concise email, and missing-information checklist.

Actual input

Meeting notes
18 June website launch meeting. Decided: keep 8 July public launch if accessibility testing passes. Noor will deliver revised keyboard-navigation fixes by 24 June. Eli will run the retest; no date assigned. Marketing suggested announcing on 1 July, but the group did not decide. Open: who makes the final go/no-go call and what severity of accessibility issue blocks launch. Rosa disagreed with announcing before retest completion.
Recipients and context
All six attendees, including Rosa; the project sponsor did not attend. Recipients should verify the record and clarify ownership gaps.
Reply and tone rules
Neutral and concise. Ask for factual corrections by 20 June 17:00, but explicitly say open questions still require replies.

Example output

Subject: 18 June launch meeting—decisions and open items

Hi all,

Here is my record of the 18 June meeting.

Decision: retain the 8 July public launch, conditional on accessibility testing passing.

Actions: Noor—deliver revised keyboard-navigation fixes by 24 June. Eli—run the accessibility retest; due date not specified.

Not decided: Marketing proposed a 1 July announcement. Rosa opposed announcing before the retest is complete.

Replies still needed: who owns the final go/no-go decision; what issue severity blocks launch; and the retest due date. Please send factual corrections to this record by 20 June at 17:00. Silence will not resolve the open questions.

Thanks, [Sender name]

Missing information: sender name, retest date, go/no-go owner, blocking threshold, and whether the absent sponsor must approve.

Why this works

  1. 1

    Separating decisions from proposals prevents a polished recap from creating false commitments.

  2. 2

    Visible missing owners and dates turn documentation gaps into concrete follow-up.

Check the result

  • Are confirmed decisions clearly separated from proposals and questions?

  • Do action owners and dates appear exactly as recorded?

  • Does the correction request avoid treating silence as approval?
