We made a call at the meeting and on the list for participants, and we took everyone who volunteered.  I suspect that not everyone who volunteered for (or was drafted for :-)) the design team will actively participate, and the number of volunteers wasn't so large that it made sense to exclude anyone.

This design team is going to look at the "Multiple Provisioning Domain" problem, and work on an architectural approach (or approaches?) to addressing that issue.  It will be interesting to see if we can get any consensus, even within the team, about what the problem is at an architectural level and how to address it.   I think we have a lot of different ideas, and it will be interesting to see if we can find some common ground.
