Overall organization within these tools

Our member-facing platforms are subdivided in consistent ways, primarily according to the "Action Group" responsible for each area.

Slack
Trello
Wiki
In addition to some channels available to all members, each action group has one or more Channels and Private Groups (private channels) for their particular purposes.
Each action group has one or more boards to track their tasks
Each action group has a publicly viewable sub-wiki (workspace in zoho terms), in which to present instructions and supporting information to the Fab Lab community, and for their activities. Action groups may have an additional private sub wiki for purposes of planning and other internal documentation.
See this wiki's home page to see this breakdown.
