  •  Link to same code guidelines but it's not a barrier - requiring some kind of identification - don't add stuff created by others without their permission 
  •  Resources for best practices re. Github 
  •  2 ways code can get into labs
    •  fork projects into org
    •  adding people in
  •  group within larger Community Committers group that could provide some kind of oversight / determination re. what's deprecated - Patrick & Max happy to help with this (not sure if it's intergrations sub-team long term)

As far as I know, there's currently no automated way to say "this fork is a reference, keep this fork up to date with its parent." Thus, anything forked in to this org will need more or less constant maintenance, or some sort of scripted update mechanism, in order to maintain currency.  Given that this seems primarily intended as a linking mechanism to externally provided code, would it maybe make sense to have the primary entry point into this be a Github Pages page, with a link to each internal/external tool and other explanatory content.  I think the barrier to entry won't be any higher than with a collection of forked repos, and the maintenance burden would be lower.

As per the notes from last time, since we're trying to encourage "as much collaboration, sharing and committing as possible," it might be nice to lower barriers if we had some resources readily available from this space. I'm not suggesting we create any, just point to existing guidelines/tutorials on GitHub lingo, getting things in there, best practices for READMEs (even if we aren't requiring any documentation), etc., who to ask for help, etc.
