# mdf-planning-notes ## 20240517 messy notes * idea that we move towards them writing something more naturally in slack and then we parse it * meetings could be where a lot of the reporting stuff happens, since training based on their project charters will be more individualized * this summer we should think about how to build the system that gets us from slack and people talking to what we need * overdoing it in slacks * people-related channels * for next year, we'd like a new ll-central (rename the old one, create a new one.) * project-specific channels that map on to books/docs/etc. * lab channels related to ongoing interesting focal points (more discussion of ideas) * work channels for undergrads and staff that are working with a given tools (more like the factory zone) * utils are utilities * mk/dd test this summer with interviews and channels from last year * working towards: bots listening to loads of these channels, parsing them, coming up with live reports
