What if we were to just admit everyone to the grid, with the understanding
that for the first few months (say, six?) members are somewhat
"probationary" and can have their access revoked?  We've done the
new-introducer-furl dance a couple of times and it went pretty smoothly, so
I think removing someone from the grid isn't too difficult.

On a related note:  We have one member node right now which isn't meeting
the storage requirements.  I think we should give that node a deadline to
get upgraded.  If it hasn't been upgraded by the deadline, then we should
ask that it be removed from the grid.  How about three months?  That's a
deadline of July 3rd.

Does this approach make sense?  We haven't had to take any action like
removing nodes up until now (though Jody did decide to remove one of his
nodes because he didn't feel it could be reliable enough), but I think as
we grow we'll need to get a little more firm about it.
