What suggestions would you have to even begin ...
There are MANY methods of approaching this, but it would take a coherent development team, and people that would NOT walk away from the project 'because we need money in real life' or any other situation. We would be happy to help in any way we can, but food on the table is always going to be the issue no matter where you turn here mate.
I believe if we have a set of ideas AND a plan to start, then it would attract a much better field of people AND developers.
Still a good way of doing things would definitely be to at least start a list of ideas.

start a list of ideas
(great first step)
(a set of ideas)
idea ONE : exchange/platform is of, for, and by the coin community (-ties).
idea TWO : exchange/platform admins/DEVs would likely be employees (verses owners).
idea THREE : work with a variety of service providers with already working products, thus the focus is on interconnecting and optimizing and combining into a joint project of said exchange/platform/resource
[I would like to keep the mission statement simple - so not many idea points]
In a sentence all coins involved share a common goal, build an exchange/platform/resource that serves to develop decentralized coin projects.
