I understand that is one possible interpretation of my words.
As I said on IRC, we should define some roles to define a bit of
structure. But explicitly leave the rest to be filled in as time roles
by.
My idea is to create some clarity by defining a bit of structure and
keep being flexible by not defining the rest.

I can also see how model that would work out, if these people are able
to work together and keep eachother up to date constantly.

Indeed! A good soup isn't made in 5 minutes, but takes at least a day.
Let's have the soup we are now preparing simmer for a while and see how
the flavour needs to be adjusted so we all like it.
