In any large organization, division of labor has always proven more effective and it gives room for specialization which leads to effectiveness. That is why the idea of coming up with a structure is important and needs to be effected as soon as possible. Not everybody can do everything. There are those who have links and are bold to approach people for new networks, there are those who are very good at the field and could be involved more in the implementation of projects; there are those who are very good on the online stuff and could help publish ideas, coordinate events online and spread the gospel of Wikimedia Kenya...etc. The roles as assigned for the pilot project is a good start, and I wish u success in everything.

Guys, i think the project should remain as "Wikipedia for Schools Project" since we can have both offline and online versions depending on resources. David.
