I added a section to it documenting "Tasks in the Upgrading The Name
Project."

It may make sense to start by populating that with some set of
"brainstormed" items.

It might then make sense to classify those between:
- Tasks that are Certainly Necessary
- Tasks that are Certainly Unnecessary

I put in a few things that I thought of, but haven't attempted
classification, as that seems premature.
