Hey KB,

It looks like Neil beat me to most of the meaty discussion, but I am
happy to be the sacrificial lamb to hold the Storage SIG reins for
now.  Is there anything I could do in preparation for the proposal
stuff that might make the road a bit smoother?

I see that most of the work is post devteam member involvement (new
list, wiki section, etc) that I'm happy to start populating as soon as
it makes sense.  Just didn't know if there were specific proposal docs
or other sundry that may help. Happy to run with whatever makes sense.
 Thanks.



Best Regards,
