We now use a number of other tools to manage our active tasks. As of June 2018, we use Trello for kanban boards, and we set a weekly list of action items at each Tuesday meeting.
Below are a list of To Do items, separated by topical area. If you decide to take one on, please post your name after the item and send a note to the mailing list with your plan of action! We welcome contributions of tasks, also :)
