The organization of resources/peers in communities
is suggested to be an efficient way for resource
discovery, but effectiveness of proposed communities
depends on the active role and responsibility of a
"Community Coordinator". Communities are pools of
diverse peers/services sharing and controlling
resources and which have "agreed" to co-operate to
enhance their usability; such co-operation needs coordination
mechanism, negotiated policies, monitoring
and leadership to re-solve disputes. In this paper we
will outline the role of a Community Coordinator to
sustain the effective working of the community and to
provide the general framework for community
formation. This work is related to our previous and on
going work on "Community Formation" [1] and [2].
Main focus of this paper is to address expectations
from the Coordinator along with its responsibilities
and capabilities.
