Thanks for the clarification. I think we have different defintions of “people who set up the infrastructure” and “people who fill in the infrastructure”.
For me:
“people who set up the infrastructure” are not just people who come up with the idea but also who are involved in on-the-grounds getting your hands dirty setting up—e.g. setting up the initial concept, but then experimenting and refining the set-up as time goes on. This seems like fairly difficult work. This on-the-ground iteration requires a much higher time commitment and therefore I’d expect it to be harder to recruit for.
Another distinction is the leader / core organiser of the infrastructure, who doesn’t need to have set it up and so in some way is “filling the infrastructure” but probably needs to have certain skills. I think that this is also not going to be easy and requires people to pass some bar.
