 Program Feature: To-Do ListThe Esperanza To-Do List is a place where you may list any request, big or small, for assistance. If you need help with archiving your usertalk, for example, all you need to do is list it here and somebody will help you out. Likewise, if you need help with some area of editing on Wikipedia, list it here! Again, any matter, trivial or not, can be placed on this page. However, all matters listed on this page must not be of an argumentative nature. You do not need to be a member of Esperanza (or this program) to place or fulfill requests on this page. If you don't have any requests, consider coming by and fulfilling a few!  This program has not been very active, but has lots of potential! What's New?In order to help proposed programs become specific enough to make into full-fledged programs, the In development section of the proposals page has been created.  Proposals that are promising, but need to be organized in more detail are listed here.  Please take a look at what is there, and help the proposals turn into programs.To improve both the layout and text of the front page, in an attempt to clarify the image of Esperanza, the front page is going to have some redesigning take place.  Please take your creative minds to Wikipedia:Esperanza/Front page redesign to brainstorm good ideas. Many thanks to , courtesy of , for delivering the newsletter.

 In order to make sure all users who join Esperanza are welcomed, a list of volunteers who are willing to welcome new Esperanzians is at Wikipedia:Esperanza/Members#Esperanza_welcomers.  Please add yourself if you are interested; we want to make sure all new Esperanza members are welcomed!
 The In development section of the proposals page has been created.
 Proposals page:  Some proposals have been moved to the aforementioned ""In development"" section, some have been left as a proposal, and others have been archived.  For those proposals that were a good idea but didn't necessarily constitute a program, General Esperanzial Actions has been created.
 Two small pieces of charter reform will be decided on in a straw poll at Wikipedia talk:Esperanza/Governance.  One involves filling the position of any councillors who may leave, the other involves reforming the charter.
 Until cooperation with the Kindness Campaign is better defined, it remains as a proposed program.
 There is a page for discussing the front page redesign.
