    note the date and time...who attended. .. then just a synopsis of what was discussed and who said what. it's just a record to refresh peoples memory at the next mtg about what was discussed or to refer to if someone is unsure of what has been discussed.

    First of all, ask the chair or whoever is running the meeting to see what their expectations are. Some bosses expect all details to be captured. Personally, I only focus on a summary of discussion, decisions and action items.

    If you have to ask, you shouldn't be the one doing it.
