I'm glad thats not how the old team feels! Yet I do think the delegation
could provide more context for new volunteers on how they are supposed to
do the work we're asking them to do. Clarity on their powers (if any are
needed) would also help the team communicate with others in the project
IMO, but let's discuss all that in more detail on the call.

See also my other mail to Bart on more specifically what I think we should
do to better define the role.

Sounds good. Lmk.

That does sound managable, but since it's a public service we do have to
plan for what happens when there's a sudden burst or a particularly
complicated request.

Did the old team leave behind an archive of their internal communication
with the project so new people have something to go on and don't have to
start from scratch?

Thanks,
