So is the whole dev team going to vest creative control in the concept designer? Is this just for the site or DynAPI now?
As background: In traditional advetizing agency cheme concept desiner was called copywriter, but in digital media projects the role is different from traditional copywriting and that's the reason why this new role has been introduced in new media companies.
Concept designer is just one meber of the creative group. And there may be more than one concept designer in a group. In my opinion concept designer would start with the site, but later on he/she could be also working on other DynAPI materials, but not with the library it self... that's more technical stuff.
On that you're right, in creative team concept designer is one of the key persons along with the AD / graphic designer and project manager. You should also bear in mind that our web team can think DynAPI community as client, and client is allways the one who's saying the last word.
Are these the kinds of things the concept designer would come up with? I just want to know who has input and who does what.
Just for clarification. I have been thinking just the "promotional" / "communicational" materials (like web site, manuals etc.) as field for concept desinger in the web team.
I know that in some product development teams also more technical stuff have been organized so that tehere is creative desigenrs evolving the product with technical designers. But that's propably a bit different from open source development... And I'm not a specialist in product development projects (I have been managing only one so far --> the Helmi DHTML extension development).

So is the whole dev team going to vest creative control in the concept designer? Is this just for the site or DynAPI now? I think we all have some ideas for both. Some components I would like to see or develop myself: -form validation -regular expression helper And I am working on a treeview for the object model. Are these the kinds of things the concept designer would come up with? I just want to know who has input and who does what.
