Document everything you do as a trustee, including stuff that's
confidential (e.g. chats with lawyers). Of course that can't all be
made public (that would be ideal), but from what I understood the lack
of documentation was a serious problem during the last trustee handover,
so any action/communication you make as a trustee should be archived
somehow and made available to the next board of trustees so they don't
have to waste time trying to figure it out.
Even more important if people decide to retire before the end of their
term.
