#2shouldn't the community have some input into whom the community lets in though? It appears to be very top down and exclusionary rather than inclusive, im not sure how well that will work in building a social network.

#3> a group of 100 friendly, skilled, independent developers
> Application Process > Submit the Developer Application > Phone Call (30 minutes) > Technical Interview (1 hour)
All of this for some reason looks sketchy and suspiciously to me, domain name, website content made in 3 minutes, looks like "clever" attempt to collect recruitment data/profiles

#4I appreciate effort and people showing us things. That said ...
I don't want to login with a Google account to Submit the Developer Application. The HN account is not 24hrs old yet, there is no comment with this Show submission, only a link, the title appeals to a negative, yadda, yadda.

#5Looks great to me. I think there aren't enough active communities like this.
To the point of how to launch/grow a targeted community like this, consider this from the organizer's POV. There's got to be a starting point, with starting requirements. I've set up or helped organized groups before (a mastermind group, a local 501c3 networking group, a chapter of a national org) and there's always a bootstrap point where you as the organizer just have to do things to get it going.

Thanks Tom! I haven't done this before so definitely don't know all the best practices around posting, getting feedback, etc. Just thought maybe there are some other people out there who could benefit from something like this.

fascinating reply format. i guess i feel like there should be some set standard of min qualification and if a person meets it, access should be considered granted. An 'interview' is someone anxiety inducing for some remote folks. We may want more interaction, but not necessarily to the level you are at. Good luck with it all though.
