Want website pages on Project Administration
What things are necessary to keep project going?
- GitHub maintenance -- checking issues, making sure PR's get reviewed, etc.
- Zotero maintenance -- keep entries up to date
- Meeting maintenance -- keeping agendas, collecting notes, culling video calls
- Interlisp Google workgroup maintenance
- Apple Developer license
- Zoom directory, users, administration
- Non-profit benefits through TechSoup
- Acknowledging donations
- Filling annual 990 tax return, state tax return, OAG filing
- Manage consultants, volunteers
- Recruiting new contributors
We should identify who is responsible and also a backup.
Apple Developer license needed for making Mac installer.
Managing the YouTube channel, unless it falls under Googe Workspace maintenance.
There's also the Twitter/X account.
I'm not sure what level of detail on these items are needed to document. Details are helpful but also can age. I suppose out-of-date documentation is inevitable, but we should label everything with a date. I'm not sure what to say any more about Twitter.
I can work on this:
- Zotero maintenance
- meeting maintenance
- Zoom
- recruiting new contributors
- YouTube channel
As for Twitter, it may not be a good investment. Even prior to the latest developments of the platform, profiles with few followers have always been buried into invisibility by the algorithms. On the old Twitter it took at least 5-10K followers to get any meaningful reach or engagement, likely more now.
To explore ways of gathering the project administration information I created a draft Wiki page. So we can see how it works in practice and what else we need.
