Hunters and raiding

Might have been a better idea to make 1 post to the WoW Main forum instead spamming all class forums with the same post.
But, I'll be nice and give you some hints:
1) Build a motivated team
2) Gear up
3) Build a balanced raid group
For Karazhan you'll need:
- 2 tanks (1 prot specced, 1 offensive / AOE tank)
- 3 healers (if you farm the instance, you can reduce to 2 healers, but for the start 3 are mandatory)
- 5 DDs
- time: raid Kara at least two days a week until you have managed to kill Arran/Prince
To make things easier bring >=1 priest (because of shakkle, fear, buff), >= 1 paladin(buffs ftw), >= 2 AOE classes (mage, warlock for some trash packs), few melee classes (although that is not that important anymore since the instance has been nerfed/adjusted for melee dps somewhat).

For Gruul you'll need:
- 6-8 healers
- 3 tanks (plus one or two off tanks like feral druids or arms/fury warriors)
- heavy DPS
For the 1st Boss you will want ~8 healers till you beat the encounter.
For the 2nd Boss you do not want more than 7 healers, 6 are also sufficient. However you will need very strong DPS for this fight, so you have to gear up a lot.

My guild is about to start raiding Kharazan and Grulls lair. We have built the guild up since TBC to a suitable level where we have enough players to do so (through an aliiance). Only hardly any of us have raid experience other than UBRS (pre TBC) and that seems a long time ago.
My question to this forum is what a Hunter is expected to do in Raids. I know that talents can make a huge difference so maybe if you could say how certain talents can help within raids and specifically which talents you feel have no place in raids.
Also if you could give examples of things that you have done with your class or hints and tips that I could pass back to my guild members.,
Remember we are new to this so we are prepared for a lot of wipes and huge repair bills, but you??e got to start somewhere.
Thanks in Advance,
