Since I see a great need to grow our user group in both its relationship to local businesses and developers, I feel there is a need for more of a business approach to our organization. I don't think we've needed this for the last year as we were merely a small core group of developers and "hobbyists." However, now we have a great opportunity for growth, and I would like us to take advantage of it.
Thus, I'm proposing the following officer roles. Please comment on them and let me know what you think. I'm not sure how we'll go about choosing those who will fill these roles right now, but if you would like to make a suggestion (nomination) for a role, please feel free to voice that here.
