you’re decision to go ahead with buddypress is spot on, especially because it evolves around community, and iHUB is about building a community and people helping each other out. and you’re right, it allows for much faster implementation.

You have not highlighted what your road map for the website is, nevertheless I think you guys should implement a Q&A section to, am not sure if buddypress supports that or if there’s a plug in, buddy press allows for general forum, which is important but I think a Q&A allows for more useful and richer discussions especially if one wants specific help, for example in the Q&A somebody might ask;

“My app is in this vertical, what is the best strategy for customer acquisition, should I concentrate on the social graph or search?”

“This is my app, how can I calculate CLV and what metrics should I measure?”

then whoever is knowledgeable can provide insight. Q&A also is great for gauging a users prowess and tracking engagement.If you do choose to implement a Q&A, check out the following tools
osqa.net, shapado.com & qhub.com . OSQA is awesome and comes with some game mechanics built in.

The most important thing is to have a website live then it can always be iterated and improved. Oh! and does buddypress support game mechanics? for a community such functionality is indispensable,( especially from day one)

Interesting choice – curious to see how you’ll tune it for your needs.
