All of those statuses are relevant to me.

Discussion with the people working on the most closely related things.

In order:  A personal list, trac, the master list of sponsor goals on the wiki.

> 2.4 How do you coordinate working together with someone on something?

I really do best coordinating over private email, which I am still
working on changing because I perceive that it doesn't work well with
how everyone else coordinates.  I've been trying to find a balance
between day to day coordination in private, and then making sure that
major milestones get communicated to a list.  I have started using
this approach as with the GSoC coordination in the latter portion of
the summer.

> 2.5 How do you learn who you could work together with on something?

Face to face interaction.  Again, I know this is something I have to
change because it doesn't work well in the context of Tor.
