For bugs -> Github.

For suggestions -> Lighthouse.   This will transition elsewhere after
somebody takes the time to triage the current massive list of
suggestions out of Lighthouse into one of our other choices.

For coordinating current work items -> Trello.  This is an experiment
and may not survive past the 2.0 release.

Anything questionable -> Google Groups.   If you're not sure if the
bug is in your program or in Hobo itself, or you want to discuss
anything, then Google Groups is the place to go.

There are two problems with using a Wiki:

1: it would fragment rather than consolidate things.   Some things,
such as the taglibs documentation, cannot be transferred, so we'd end
up with more sites than we started with.

2: we really should be dogfooding things.   Improving the cookbook
will help a *lot*, but it's on the list of things that would be "nice
to do" rather than "have to do", so some help would really be
appreciated.

The two relevant Trello cards are:  https://trello.com/c/br7q0Qod and
https://trello.com/c/MBqW8dRA and maybe https://trello.com/c/mHiClV6i
and https://trello.com/c/lwtvbTsd
