This is a todo list of items that currently don't fall under any Teams or Strike-teams. Visit the Team Pages for Team-related information.

Formulate Plan
- Vision
- Bylaws
- TOS and Privacy Policy
- Develop task-list of ongoing duties from each "group" <-underway
Regular status updates with key leaders
Organize staff, delegate tasks to qualified people
Fire people when it isn't working out sooner rather than later (this should go in ongoing duties task-list once created)
password sharing, multi-factor protection (see: http://point-at-infinity.org/ssss/ for an example)
- Getting LDAP setup would aid in this endeavor

Determine best method to poll community on decisions (slash polls are stated to be unreliable, comments are useful but harder to draw empirical data from)
Determine Staff Communication Forum
- Keep mailing list
- redmine (ruby on rails)
- Use slashcode test server (would require tweaks but we could test new code while communicating, moderating best ideas etc.)
  - See: AudioGuyWorkNotes
- Aquire concensus
Clarify our stance on lameness filter paramaters
New Name contest (final one, we hope)
- New Names Shortlist:
  - soylentnews
  - port119.net
  - baconnews.org baconnews.net (baconnews.net was suggested as it can be "BNN")
  - nerdcard.net
  - geekcard.org
  - dailybacon.org
  - ionews.org

- Carry out necessary tasks to achieve chosen incorporation model status
Solicit legal advice:
