  1. Some of this can be determined beforehand. Who is doing it, what their motivations were, what you like/dislike about the various implementations, summary of current licensing schemes with benefits/pitfalls of each, costs of self-hosted vs cloud services, ... Would be useful to have a wiki or Google Docs page somewhere to put some of this together, but there are a bunch of other resources too.
