In case someone else is waiting for the logs/minutes from the last tuesday's council meeting you can find the raw irc logs here:

As for the actually question for this thread: How is the council <-> community communication done nowadays? for me it seems that is not really happening. Sorry for ranting but IMO one of the council's most important tasks is left undone. namely "making sure that one portion of the community knows what is going on in another". I'm really hoping the next council holds transparency, etc. in high value.
