Owen lays out the whole topic well and presents some strategy options. He also links to Jeff Eaton's DrupalCon presentation that was mentioned at our meetup.
Erik's pictures
I would love to see the photos Erik was showing of his design process being sketched on the wall/whiteboard. Any chance of posting these Erik?
