How to automatically add user accounts to project workspaces?

I've tried to search online for this, but not found much joy.

We have three people managing any given project, as we have a team that
manage projects. So I need an implementation that allows a "team" to
manage a project. Is there any way that I can do this with Project
Server 2003?

I can't find a way to do this from my research, so I have got around
this problem is by assigning the project management team a PWA user
account. So each person from the project management team logs into PWA
using the same "project management team" user account. This way they
can all view/add/update tasks/risks/issues as the "project management
team".

However, this solves the problem for PWA, but introduces another
problem for our particular implementation. We are also using SharePoint
Portal 2003 as an intranet, and project workspace websites (created
automatically when projects are loaded). Users are signing into PWA
using the team login. The project workspaces use windows account sign
on for users. As a result I need to add all of the individual members
of the "project management team" as users to the project workspace
website. This causes the following problem:

Is there a way to automatically add users to project workspaces for
every website created? I need to add all the individual users in the
"project management team" as users into the project workspaces. This
would not be possible manually, as there are many projects. So is there
any way of automating this? The individual users do not have individual
PWA accounts, so I can't synchronise PWA with WSS (even if they did,
they would have no tasks assigned to the members of the project
management team individually, as they are assigning tasks to the whole
team).

Any suggestions or ideas would be welcome.

Thanks,
Vish.
