    * Organizations
    * Maintainers
    * Registry Managers
    * System Administrator
    * Visitor

F2F meeting:

1. Roles for all parties defined better, so we can make best use of individual capabilities and skills
2. Tasks and dependencies set up so that we don't get stymied by duelling priorities, etc.
3. Determining what triggers a new version, also requirements for semantic understanding--what are the policy questions? The implications?
4. Use cases are focusing on project start, but we should attempt to flesh out where we want to go second year (Action item: Stuart will add use cases for Application Profiles)
