At its most polite, wouldn't an invitation-only stance to an open-source
project smack of elitism and clique-y-ness? While it might engender
solidarity among "the chosen few", wouldn't it mostly serve to drive the
majority away, who will end up implementing their own strategies?
Ironic, considering your stated goal is to unify the testing landscape, not
to further fragment it.

Maybe ELC(E) should be invite-only too? If it's good enough for the kernel
people...
