Comment (by hnla):

 @ Core Devs opinions on the following would be appreciated

 * 1. Less / SaSS - This has been raised before but feel we need to agree
 again whether we pre-process or not. Obviously we don't currently with our
 sheets, even though most of us will be working this way by default. IMO we
 haven't thus far, it may be a barrier to people getting involved, requires
 maintaining two files.

 * 2. Patches or Zip files: What is the best approach to working files and
 maintaining some principle of versioning? I have updated the current patch
 on the twentyfifteen and propose that as the base file we work from.
 Concerns are that with either approach we can stand to clash with multiple
 versions that then take additional time and work to resolve.

 * 3. Number of themes to tackle:  I propose we tackle three initially as
 probably being the most we can manage and ensure a level of quality that
 we would wish within a release cycle
