I was speaking with a friend who started a non-profit with the same ideals.

One thing I might add to your list is something he mentioned to me: Making compact “toolkits” as you go in developing your own work. This has two benefits, 1) it forces you to refine the ideas for whatever you’re developing, because you have an “end user” in mind and 2) if anyone wants to build on your work, they already have a useful summary of what they need to do, instead of wading through too much information (like listening to every meeting podcast, for examples).

Just some things to consider! :)

Yeah, way cool! As time goes on, more and more information about our organization will be put on this website. Expect this to be almost a “hub” for everything wDA. It might include departamental updates, possible a podcast, images, and more (I’m actually not sure how images would fit into this, but one can hope!). Some more information on what I hope we do with this can be found on a post I did about open-sourcing an organization. [...]
