This sounds like it'd be a good question for someone to set up as a
wikisurvey on http://www.allourideas.org/ (which I am nearly sure I first
discovered via OKfn affiliation though I can't find OKfn in their info).

"What should be in a kit for a new OKfn Ambassador?"

I don't want to just start one at random, but whether using this tool or
some other, a place where the ideas floated here could be saved (and sifted
with others) could be handy.
