=== Standard paper study questions ===

  - Write a short (max 5 sentences) summary of the paper.
  - What is the problem addressed in the paper?
  - Why is the problem important?
  - How do the authors address the problem?
  - How do they evaluate their approach?
  - What is the punch-line (key cool idea, or "what I got out of this paper")?  This is often different for different people and different from what the authors may have intended.
  - Make a list of deeper questions that you would like discussed in the meeting.
