Those sound like admirable goals.

Scalability is the one that first came to my mind.

Resilience could be another one, but including it will constrain the 
solution. So it would be good to clarify whether, and to what extent, 
resilience is a goal. Will we get agreement that this is a goal?

My point is that the goals ought to be mentioned in the charter.
Without, we will never know whether the ultimate solution meets the 
goals. Adding them to the charter will then probably lead to (later, as 
a WG deliverable) refining them into a more fine-grained set of 
requirements for the mechanism.

	Thanks,
