I think talent pool doesn’t /quite/ capture things like entrepreneurs and field builders and people who are building things.
Error checkers is good, but also something like finding cause x isn’t quite error checking. It’s more like avoiding the risk of omission kind of stuff / rethinking fundamental assumptions.
I think my problem with this question, which I’ve been thinking about in maybe different ways for many years, is that there isn’t a binary between community member and [core ea decision maker / etc.] - it’s very much a continuum and people occupy multiple roles at once. This becomes complicated because you can’t quite set boundaries the same way.
For example, if a community member starts their own grantmaking foundation, are they still a community members or a decision maker? Does it only count if they know the right people or are in a certain cause area? How do their responsibilities change (or not change)?
Yeah, I thought I’d test the waters then write it up if people thought it was valuable.
Do you have any other frames for what the community might be?

Researchers? People who develop and test different approaches to doing good at a rapid pace
