1) Who makes the decisions that have to be made about website/forum content? (good case in point is the 4wd forum).... Any of the dev team or forum admins can technically do it, but who should make the call to actually do it?
2) Who makes the decisions about any issues that crop up relating to anything to do with external queries to the site (Who is the nominated mouthpiece for the site for Media contact/Liaison with NPWS or whomever should the time/need arise?)
3) Who/how/what plans should be put into some sort of charter/memorandum of understanding as to the data that exists on this site. We all know that the data is available for use on another host if needs be, but maybe the 'senate' need to liase with our benefactors in a formal way just to cover everyones asses....
4) If 3 becomes a real issue and we have to shift hosts who/how/when does the senate/honchos raise the funds/sponsorship and how are those funds managed, and who is going to deliver the beer and free GCA merchandise to the developers....
I'm beginning to think more and more about these particular issues....
It's obvious that I've left out the steering of the developers because as one, I can tell you that being pecked by a committee as to what to code for the site will cause me (at least) to REALLY lose interest in doing dev work here... I code for the love of coding and the love of the ideals of this site.... I can only speak for myself, but I code under duress at work, I don't need it in my spare time

So, if I'm not too far off track from i!'s first post, how do we achieve this?
