Agenda item description field is too small

[Paul Gear]

It needs to be much larger

23:10 < mhall119> blahdeblah: which is more important for you, vertical space or horizontal?
23:10 < blahdeblah> yes
23:11 < blahdeblah> ;-)
23:11 < mhall119> portrait or landscape?
23:11 < mhall119> can't say 'yes' to that :P
23:15 < blahdeblah> mhall119: Personally, i would prefer more width, because most screens
                    nowadays are 16:9 or 16:10 aspect ratio, but others might see it
                    differently. I would say at least 3 times wider and 2 times taller than
                    it currently is.
23:16 < mhall119> hmmm, that might be too big for most other teams...
23:16 < mhall119> usually they just use a single line for an agenda item
23:16 < mhall119> the description field was really only for short descriptions
23:16 < blahdeblah> Evidently ;-)
23:17 < mhall119> what are you planning on storing in it?
23:17 < blahdeblah> If people are going to take the time to prepare for the meeting by adding
                    structured agendas, they will probably want to write 3 or 4 sentences
                    about their item, IMO.
23:18 < mhall119> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AustralianTeam/Meetings sayd "first a half line
                  subject, followed by a short description as a sub-point of the subject, and
                  signing it with your wikiname or IRC nick after that"
23:18 < mhall119> 3 or 4 sentences will probably be the max
23:19 < mhall119> we don't need a 6x size increase to contain that
23:20 < mhall119> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AustralianTeam/Meetings/2011February8 would easily
                  fit
23:21 < mhall119> I think doubling the width and height should be sufficient

I am bringing up a new bug about wiki markup
