I definately want to help. I'm up for:
Web research assistant
Forum administrator - I have some experience here
Wiki Organizer
Regional Evangelist - I can currently go to all of Denmark, Southern Sweden, and Northern Germany and evangelize in Danish and English, orally and in writing. I have experience in speaking to an audience.
Manual Labor? Yes, but I assume the work is going to take place in California. For now I'm only availible in Northern Europe.
Translation are a good
Translation are a good point: i could translate things to dutch. On the other hand, would there be much interest in translations? Thats questionable.
I could translate things to spanish
puedo traducir desde ingles a español

Would love to help.
Would love to help. Unfortunately, I'm not an engineer or IT guy, so those avenues are gone.
I might be able to come over and help with the grunt work. Also, perhaps regional ambassador for Australia and/or Asia. I should be able to handle translation to Chinese. Skills that may or may not be useful: recreational pilot, scuba divemaster, economist & politician.
Modern day Renaissance man, with emphasis on Science/Engineering
Well it looks like the world has finally come around to one of my old Big Ideas.
About 20 years ago I had the idea of a floating city called New Atlantis, that was 20 stories deep. It ran on the thermal gradient of the ocean, and was moored in the middle of the Gulf of Mexico.
I had made many analysis' solving the large problems of such a life supporting structure.
In any case I would seriously consider a for-pay position with this group, somewhere in the engineering feasability planning section of this organization. I am well versed in engineering, physics, chemistry, math (up to a point), economics, politics, electronics and control systems, programming, and a whole slew of everything else.
I am the real deal, and I still retain my quixotic imagination, despite having been dissuaded from having such a viewpoint by society.
All I need is the proper venue to apply my skills and this is certainly exactly on point to one of my lifelong goals.
Engineering
I have a degree in Ocean Engineering from Annapolis, and have kept up with developments in marine structures, particularly in ferrocement and concrete in a marine environment. I also have a good background in power systems and support infrastructure. I have been interested in maritime communities, or sea-steading, for years and would be very interested in participating in making the concept a reality.
"He who does not risk, cannot win." -- John Paul Jones
Thats good to hear
I also have an engineering degree, but not specific to civil or ocean engineering. I have been working on some different seastead structure concepts, and didnt have the knowledge to properly adress some questions about concrete. I hope to post some of my work here somewhere in the next days, it would be great if you could comment on it, especially the parts concerning the costs and manufacturability of concrete.
Graphics/Design/Engineering/Construction
Would love to help out, however I can. Currently in Southern CA, but would consider relocating.
Skills/experience:
3d graphics in Blender, am also proficent in Gimp and Inkscape
BS in Engineering, currently working in design and fabrication of machinery
basic SCUBA certification, sailing experience, training for airplane pilot's license
experience with ferrocement as well as welding (mig, tig, and stick) and machining (milling and turning)
Legal Research
I'll have the ability to do independent research for law school credit during the next two years. I'll see what I can come up with on my own, but if you have any suggestions about particular topics, let me know!
Editing the ocean environment section of the book
I'm starting a Ph.D. program in physical oceanography and I'd love to help fill out the section of the book on the ocean environment. I probably wouldn't be able to meaningfully contribute for at least a year. I would need some guidance on what content would be appropriate and what level to pitch it at and what format you would like it in (ascii, LaTeX, open office, html etc.).
Muscle and a little brains
- getting my Applied and Engineering Physics degree from Cornell University in '09.
- specializing in biophysics
- I have experience with construction and can lift heavy things.
- plan on getting my MBA and being a serial entrepreneur.
I would be up for helping with heavy lifting and manual labor over a summer when you get ready for construction. I can fill in for pretty much any engineering position, but you are probably better off with a specialist when they are available. I am interested in the business aspects of seasteading, and ideally I would like to use seasteads someday to found and base international corporations.
Labour
I am based in the UK, but I am very interested in aiding this cause. Put me down for labour work if needed.
I.volunteer
Hello,
I came across this initiative through the Marginal Revolution blog and I must say I got really enthusiastic about this idea. Although I can't make any donations - I am still an undergraduate student, tf, no money :P - I would love to contribute to this initiative. In case you are interested I could help you with:
Web research assistant - I have some experience with academic researching, and I have already worked as an assistant-editor to an academic website. Forum administrator - I have already worked as an assistant-editor to an academic website (we had a forum). Wiki Organizer Regional Evangelist - I live ion Brazil and I have experience with public speaking. Manual Labor - I would be up to manual labor (but I assume your are not going to need me for this).
I speak Portuguese (native), English, Spanish (fluent) and German (advanced).
I'll help
BS in Astro Engineering, Masters MBA, International Health, Hyperbaric Medicine, Mathematics) MD
Pilot (ATP Single/Multi Land, Sea)
Sailor (and USCG licenses for 100-ton Master, STCW)
Shooter (long range)
I'd like to take on the research and some development for medical plans and facilities, and offer my 2-cents worth on whatever else I can come up with.
Need people with business experience and education
I interrupted a program of study in International Business Management to take my current job. But I am still impressed with the program itself. And there are quite a few bright young minds interested and eager to do something solid interacting with Asia-Pacific Rim economies, that might just have something to add, as they study business, politics, law, languages, and customs of the Pacific Rim economies.
Sponsorship needs of a project vary quite a bit, but I think this is something the program administrators might find interesting, as well as the students. Particulalry with the eco-sustainable undercurrent running through both the Seastead-interested community and at PSU's MIM program. Jeff Millard is the person to contact there.
Sounds like an interesting
Sounds like an interesting idea - we'll look into it!
commercial diver
An idea that is very close to my heart.
I have experience as a commercial diver (class 2 HSE), can help with any wet bits - Welding, cutting, inspection, rigging. Also, training in volunteer Sea Rescue (NSRI).

Conference Coordinator
Hi!
I'd love to volunteer as Conference Coordinator.
I've done quite a lot of conferences thusfar, up to 400 people, so I know what needs to be done, what the best ways are to get things done and to get speakers, negociate deals etc.
I am however based in the Netherlands right now, but am willing to travel, plus that my evenings are daytime in the US, which is where I suspect you will want the conference to be organized, so no time-difference trouble there.
Just let me know if you need me!
Infrastructure guy
although mainly for slums and villages, not so much for floating countries
also software for managing states
http://guptaoption.com/4.SIAB-ISA.php - biometrics, blind contracts, and privately issued identity credential services.
Programming and Model Building
Extensive C/C++, MATLAB, and MathCad skills.
Moderate Perl, PHP, SQL, Python skills
Defense Volunter
i may not be an expert, but ever since i was little i have loved everything there was to know about military warfare and defense technology, so if there is anything that you need to know about defense of the seasteads then I will know it, be able to find out about it, or be able to find the right person to help you with it. It does not hurt that my favorite teacher at the school I go to has a son in the navy ( he he he he), she tells us lots of stories in class about her family and what they are doing. Just let me know at one of my email accounts or leave a message here for me.

Web & Med
I'm a professional webdesigner with 5 years (2 pro) experience working with web/graphic design and site administration. I'm mainly profficient in xHTML, and CSS, but I've got experience working with most major CMSes, running blogs/forums etc. I can do minor backend work, and can work with PHP/ASP files.
So basically if you need any help with the website frontend I can do it. I'm not a "programmer" though, I leave scripting to the smarter guys :)
Former HavenCo CEO looking for work :-)
I am willing to help in any way that does not involve moving anywhere. Jo has me making babies now, and presumably raising them once they are made. I could probably make some trips to help with fund raising or the like though. You know my skills and experience. Just let me know what it is that you guys need done and think that I might be able to help with.

Antarcticland
Seasteading options for Antarcticland are a good solution. The Antarcticland www.antarcticland.org is the oldest territorial domain of the Antarctic continent. It includes all the lands and islands in section extending from the South Pole to 60° S latitude between longitudes 90° W and 135° W, with a total area of 1.554.424, slightly less than the size of Portugal, Spain, France, Italy and Switzerland all together. It is administered by the Government of Anatarcticland and the head of State is the Regent and Grandmaster of the Sovereign Order of the Antarticland, Sir Giovanni Caporaso Gottlieb. There is no indigenous nor permanetly resident population, but the knights patrol the area during the austral summer. The country has its own legislative system, together with legal, economic and postal administrations. Any person may become citizen simply by applying and swearing alliegance to the Constitution. Revenue from administrative fees and the sale of postage stamps means that it is financially self sufficient. The government is in negotiations with several groups of investors to develop the first ice hotel and city in the Antarctic.

good engineering and politics
I am a first year Electronic Engineering with business management student. Therefore I have acquired a background in Physics, Maths, Circuits and assembly programming. Also I have a deep interest in politics and history, especially an interest in the old philosophers(Senece, Eraclitus). I am able to program in C, PHP, HTML, Javascript also I worked in research areas for cultural institutions(Ist. Luigi Sturzo, Ansa). I am fluent in Italian(mother tongue), English and I am able to communicate at a non technical level in Spanish. I am interested in any unpaid volunteering opportunity to help develop this revolutionary project. My favourite hobbies/sports are reading, travelling, watching movies. I do Skydiving, boxing and rowing. As a general rule of thumb I take pictures at the world surrounding me, therefore I always carry a digital camera with me.
