Description and thoughts
Yes it needs to be robust and yes it will need support so it can grow, I would like to produce a slick end product and whether it's payment upfront and I own 100% or a split partnership where we pool resources and share in the benefits later is also up to the developer.
While the end result is a business platform, there is a perfectly suited small community site that would suit as a test bed with live feedback and I have a lot of feedback from the use of the opensource solutions used in the past.

Honesty is the key... also would be a bonus if between +0 and +8 GMT (not necessary if you're a night owl or respond in a regular time frame)
