This is the __TO DO__ list for the New Zealand Personal Robotics Group (NZPRG). These are things that need doing, and we'll need volunteers. You can contact [Murray] if you think you can help, or have any ideas that might help.


* __Apply for nonprofit status for NZPRG__: we need someone with the experience necessary to apply for non-profit status in New Zealand so the NZPRG can own things (rather than [Murray]), apply for grants, ask for discounts from vendors, and begin to figure out how to create a sustainable organisation
* come up with a reasonable way to handle __membership__ (both local and remote/international)
* we need someone to take responsibility for __scheduling meetings__ (where? when? how often?)
* approach local and international businesses who may wish to sponsor the NZPRG, including possible discounts on hardware or software purchases
* create several __prototype robots__ of varying sizes and costs, in mind of applying for a grant to buy the parts to build maybe ten "kits" as a starter stock for the group (or maybe just have everyone design and build their own from these recipes, i.e., does the NZPRG need to own any robots?)
* compile a list of __people-with-skills__ and __people-with-tools__
* compile a list of __people willing to loan out tools__ or otherwise allow people to use expensive tools or machinery (maybe at meetings?), or help others with various things like cutting plastics or metal as necessary to build robots

* compile a list of __theses__ and __robot proposals__
* accumulate a __stock of spare parts and tools__ (new)
* create a __scrap box__ of extra components, materials, spare electronics, etc. where people can both donate and take from (similar to one of my neighbours' give-and-take sidewalk library) 
* we need people to take on __[Tasks]__ as listed on the wiki
* we need __[Wiki Gardeners]__ as the wiki grows
* create (and maintain) __a YouTube channel__ for NZPRG
* link NZPRG into any existing social media channels as appropriate

...and anything else we can think of
