dealing with it - part of the efforts are "tasked" to this group;
other efforts are RACI, fellowship... and many other, described here:

thanks for this brainstorm, we will add it to the other non-exhaustive 
lists of practical actionable points we came up with, both in the

keeping track of such to-do lists:
