This is only a draft.  There are several things wrong with it, but
it's far enough along that I would like your feedback on it.

One gaping whole in this revision is that it does not describe how
core space allocation is handled.  I have a tentative solution to that
which I will send out mail about later.

Another thing that's missing is that I have not tried to deal with
co-authorship, mostly because I'm not really sure where to draw the
line.  I'ld appreciate your input on that too.
