I am not going to beat around the bush. I am a Network Engineer that would never be accused of being a web developer. In my job I work very closely with the Open Source community and enjoy the creativity that group brings to the table.
That being said, I would like to see what the web development community can do with open access to a website. I purchased the domain http://www.buildthiswebsite.com. The site currently contains tools to edit the page. There is a forum to aid in discussion and vision for what the community wants to do with the site.
Everything is fair game. The editor/file manager will give public access to the Document_Root for the main site. PHPAdmin is also set up to create and edit the MySQL database that is connected to the site.
I would enjoy hearing you thoughts about the site. Go easy guys, like I said I am no web developer. If you have an idea, please feel free to edit the page for yourself.

Volunteer Work?
Burrito, thank your for your comments. I was wondering about your mod of my post to Volunteer Work. Is there a better place to put this post?
My concept is not for a volunteer work, rather for a site the community owns. If the community wants to create a website for people to build websites with, then so be it. If the community wants to build a forum it doesn't matter to me, anything is fair game.
I thank you for your time, and I look forward to what the development community can do.
