I agree.  We do need to define who will be doing what, etc.  To keep
things simple here are the roles I see we need*:

- Project Lead to manage the overall project
- Information Architect to define the structure of the site and pages
- Copywriter to write the content for the site if needed
- Web Designer to create the visual design of the site
- Front-End Web Developer to build the XHTML/CSS pages and perhaps
some of JavaScript/AJAX (if needed)
- Back-End Web Developer to code the pages if needed, API integration,
setup the CMS (if we need one), etc
- Server/Host Admin to manage and maintain the server
- Web Curator to maintain the site long term, delete any spam, address
bugs found later on, etc

* Note: these rolls could be combined depending on the skills of the
individual volunteering to take on these rolls, I often find designers
who can do front-end dev, or backend-devs who like to do front-end dev
as well, etc.  Certainly we don't need to have one person per roll, in
fact I would like to see the team be as small as possible but
effective.

That said, any takers? :)   I'd put my name in the hat for IA unless
someone else also wants to do it.  I'd put my name in for project lead
but I feel there are probably others out there with more experience
and understanding of coworking than I have.

No problem, I am hoping this local news coverage brings more exposure
to all of coworking in Seattle and beyond.  It was great to have you
there with your experience answering the questions I couldn't as a
newbie coworking space owner.
