I love your links, Cat.  Have you run across any for how to build a reciprocal roof?  I assume you know what those are--they make a conical roof, with the struts mutually reinforcing each other.  I've got a project for a chicken coop, but I don't want a dome, I want a conical roof.  
 
btw, what does it mean, "no leaders, no followers"?
