[wplug-board] Created a Gittip account

[Pat Barron]

The way we have handled similar things in the past is that if there is a 
Terms Of Service or the like that the organization is required to 
accept, the Board should discuss and approve this (as this is 
effectively entering into a contract on behalf of the organization); at 
that point, the Chair can sign the contract (in the case of an online 
TOS, "sign" would be "push the 'accept' button"), or can delegate that 
authority to someone else for a specific instance.

Once established, I don't believe anything further must be done to 
authorize the Treasurer to add the financial info, as this is part of 
the routine financial management activities that the Treasurer is 
already authorized to do.  Though it may be desirable to have a brief 
discussion among the Board about whether we think that's a good idea or not.
