    Thanks Josh. Added another item.<br>
    <br>
    Question though: aren't we all "volunteers?" I'm increasingly
    feeling like we're trying to operate under a traditional nonprofit
    organizational model, when in fact what we need is not traditional
    volunteers, but more dedicated working members. Of course, there are
    some folks who can only commit a very small amount of time per week,
    but we shouldn't think of them as volunteers, as though they were
    ancillary to the group, but rather a full members with serious
    commitment constraints. <br>
    <br>
    Mostly semantics, but I think the language we're using is shaping
    the way we're thinking about this effort in a counterproductive way.
    The big issue is that we need to increase our collective capacity by
    bringing in more dedicated people. <br>
