Admin: Currently tool administration (slack, discourse, etc) happens in an ad hoc way and is not documented (or at least, not anywhere I am aware of).  That is 1) not transparent 2) not secure 3) is potentially gate-keeper-y and not equitable 4) can create a burden for the people who are admins.

We should have some kind of onboarding and offboarding process for tool admins, and we should document admin-ship, and how admins are chosen, somewhere.
