Operations
Ongoing actions with pretty regular periodicity.

Regular (weekly+)

 * take notes in the etherpad (during mtgs and such)
 * announce/reminders for meetings, agendas
 * invite speakers for soft blocks / planning, scheduling workshop sessions (new, but still)
 * communications: blogpost, social media

Quarterly or so

 * send around the scheduling poll each quarter
 * organize retreats (virtual and non)
 * plan social events

Maintenance
More focused on infrastructure and tools. Less regular/predictable intervals. Sometimes mission-critical!


 * Wiki Gardening
 * Software Updating
 * Sysadmin/app-admin work related to research / collaboration infrastructure+tools (wiki, email lists, calendar, git, hyak, kibo, web servers/sites)
 * Financial administration (reimbursements, payroll/hiring, travel, etc.)

Group Nurturing
People-focused, mostly less-frequent (quarterly-or-so).


 * facilitate group-process reflection/feedback/improvement sessions at retreats
 * train people on systems & tools (hyak/overleaf/R/etc.)
 * newcomer orientations, recruitment, hiring
 * organize feedback sessions for RAs
 * outreach to adjacent communities, individuals who should come hang out!
