Similar to issues like #14, create one issue per chapter and prepopulate it with placeholders for metadata like section, chapter name, chapter number (sequence still TBD), authors (TBD), reviewers (TBD), and analysis (TBD). Each issue should have a due date and a checklist of four tasks: finalize authors, finalize reviewers, finalize analysts, finalize metrics. We can use the sections/chapters from #876 (comment) as a guide. One major process change compared to last year is that analysts should be embedded in each chapter during the planning process.

It would be helpful if all of this info was also in a spreadsheet like the 2019 PM sheet so we can see everything at a glance.

The purpose of these issues is to:

  • publish the official author(s) for that chapter (see Select 2020 authors #886)
  • have a place for peer reviewers and analysts to volunteer
  • provide a forum for authors, reviewers, and analysts to have planning discussions: what the scope of the chapter will be, what metrics are needed, what metrics are feasible, etc
  • track the status of planning tasks

We can do this now before #886 is complete. When authors are selected we can add them to the metadata in each issue and assign the issues to them. Meanwhile we can use the issues to get sign up reviewers and analysts, which is not blocked on authors.

A couple of issues have already been spun out of the author nominations thread like #878 and #877. For this issue's purpose, let's edit those issues to assume that they're first class chapters so we can go through the content planning exercise. If it turns out that the topics ought to be merged with other chapters or at worst dropped entirely, we can always do that. But best to get the planning ball rolling early.

Here's the hotlist of tracking issues for each chapter: https://github.com/HTTPArchive/almanac.httparchive.org/issues?q=label%3A%222020+chapter%22

@OBTo are there any other logistics we need to handle for each of these issues?

Inspired by Barry's comment in the CDN issue #918 (comment) it may be a good idea to also tag last year's authors in each issue to see if they're interested in reviewing it this year and/or nominating other contributors. WDYT?
