With all the new energy here, I'm working on improving our docs.  Dear
new developers, what do *you* need?

- What were the 2-3 hardest concepts to figure out, or what was the
hardest thing to find in the docs for you when starting with Whimsy?

- Is the TODO.md file useful?  It feels like most of our work gets
discussed here, on #whimsy slack, or in JIRA tickets, and the TODO file
is pretty outdated.  Can we just delete it?

- Should we have a security section, or should we host an online
discussion to review security issues?  Since Whimsy code is public, but
the server has access to private data, there are some different aspects
to consider than many other projects [1].

Separately, note Sam's awesome effort to port the /www/board/agenda tool
to node.js (from the current Rack/Ruby agenda) will not change the many
other existing Ruby CGI or Sinatra applications we run.
