Concurrency architecture for D2

[Jason House]

I'd like to participate. Both email and newsgroup are fine. Even IRC or other Internet chatroom would be ok too. Past concurrency/shared discussions on this newsgroup have not suffered from bikeshed issues. I think it's all been too theoretical or outside moat programmers' experience. There's almost no keywords to debate anyway.
