Specific ideas for improvement
- Improvements to website
- The Wiki is a mess
- Common asset store for promotional materials, etc (file server with tagging)
- Wasa2il instance for voting
- Set up a donations scheme

- Project platform (Pads, Mailing-Lists, …)
Method from PPIS
- Work is organized into working groups,
- anybody can found a working group,
- new working groups need to be announced publicly
- a working group must have a name, stated purpose, and defined deliverable
- anybody can join a working group,
- working groups exist until it is no longer needed
