Our starting point is an existing 40-member co-op of IT professionals : http://osalliance.com/
It is almost exactly what we need, and because their design is licenced as Creative Commons Attribution, we can use it, change it ... as long as we give them credit for it, e.g. include their name. Moreover, they will help us ; at the very least, we will be part of their international network of cooperatives, which is good for visibility and so-on.
