1. Appoint editor(s) for the report

2. How do we organize our work, in terms of tooling?  We'll be dealing 
with 200-500 ideas if we open this up to public input.  We need to 
classify, short, prioritize these all. A spreadsheet gives the 
sorting/filtering needed, but limits us to a single editor at a time.  A 
wiki is more open, but doesn't have support for sorting and filtering.

3. Outreach for feature ideas -- who/how/when?
