Gathering hosting: back-planning

This back-planning is to prioritize the milestones in the preparation of a gathering.   Note that the items on the check-list are assigned to the Event Organizers (mostly), SPBASA as well as the participating pipe bands.  This is also to be used to track the status gathering-organization project.
