There are 3 things I think would be do-able in the timeframe available.


1. 2fa setup - I concur - fix what's not working on move toward the
future of it. Hell, it'd be nice to do it before fudcon and bring all
the yubikeys we have spare to fudcon to distribute and verify for folks
who need them


2. select hosted projects to try out migration 'TO THE CLOUD' - the
plan we have discussed in the past to do hosted-$infinite and just
setup aliases for each project (hosted-func, hosted-coprs, hosted-mock,
etc). If we could get volunteer projects to try this out on we could
start with things like gitlabhq and the alias changes are fairly
straightforward.

3. the db-## to db-project name: db-fas, db-wiki, db-ask, db-whatever
so we no longer have to play games with figuring out where things are
stored and chasing them down. This involves making simple aliases and
updating the projects to talk to those aliases instead. It's not hard
and it's great progress to undertake


There are more things worth talking about - but in almost all cases
they require that someone have the time to work on them.... which is
sadly limited, I've found.
