Step One, post this question on social.coop. (done!)

Step Two, people ask you lots of questions like: what is the situation? What do you want to do? Why tech/what kind of tech? Users, makers, other? Why a co-op? Have you organized or been a member of a co-op before? What was that like? What are your dreams of success as a cooperative? What do you most want to avoid?...
