I think it's a good idea to have specific ToDo lists for each project
associated with that project, and a general ToDo list for SEUL as a
whole.  These lists might be ordered by skills required or by tasks
needed for a particular project, or both.  Would it be very difficult to
run some sort of elementary database that listed needs by project, skill
type, work remaining, etc.?  Then the information could be sorted and
filtered for each use and could generate a skills-based page for all of
SEUL, a project-based page (perhaps sorted by sub-projects or skills)
for each project's page, etc.
