[sudo-discuss] I read the Articles of Association

[Captain Chesapeake]

Ok. There are few overall goals with respect to what I discussed above I
think we should set, and it will take more than just me to execute them. Do
these next steps make sense for the organization, for example?

Perhaps:
1. Ask for volunteers to lead fundraising, cleanliness, and organization
challenges, perhaps develop subcommittees specially tasked with these goals.
2. Ask these volunteers (with help of members) develop scope, schedule,
budget (?) and lead execution of them, each with help from more volunteers.
3. Monthly reporting to the group on progress.

I'd like to work with rcsheets on the financial issues, specifically
developing a budget and setting targets for member contributions and
fundraising. I have some other ideas about how we can raise money too.
Rcsheets: can you work with me?
