The Projects document contains a list of all of the proposals of the Science Sociocrats group.

• It has five sections.
  • Completed
  • Approved (i.e., active tasks)
  • Pending (i.e., proposals requiring modifications)
  • Cancelled
  • New Proposals
• Each individual project is a thread, which can have introductory text, and then posts.
  • introductory text
    • goal & definition of success
    • captain(s)
    • proposed start/stop dates
    • current status
  • dated posts
    • who proposed the task, and why
    • who approved the task, and when
    • additional discussions
    • progress reports
    • etc.
• To set up a new project:
  • Click the Start New Thread button.
  • Click the Edit Full Screen button
  • Click the Insert Predefined Template Content button ().
  • Select the Task Info item.
  • Fill in the information.
  • Click Submit.
  • Leave the newly created proposal in the New section. The other team member can then periodically review the Projects document, and weigh in on any new proposals. If he approves, he can mark it as such, and move it to the Approved section. If he thinks that it requires modification, he can move it to the Pending section, and describe what he thinks needs to be modified.
• When a project changes status (i.e., from pending to accepted, cancelled, or completed), one of the captains will edit the Projects document, and move the individual project to the appropriate section.
• Changes to this process should be discussed in the document.
