    Hi Rob<br>
    <br>
    If you haven't already found it, you might want to draw upon prior
    foss4g experience in <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/FOSS4G_Handbook">https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/FOSS4G_Handbook</a><br>
    <br>
    I'd also encourage you to add to this Handbook as you come up with
    new ideas.<br>
    In particular, I really like your community voting ranking system.
    It would be good to capture how you are doing it such that others
    can follow your lead.<br>

    Warm regards, Cameron<br>
