Mike Stonebraker and David DeWitt are coordinating this effort from the database side; folks at SLAC (Jacek Becla) and others are coordinating from the LSST side. The Computing Community Consortium is likely to play a role.

Typically, the goal of these instruments, which may cost hundreds of millions of dollars to build and tens of millions of dollars annually to operate, is to find answers to some of the most fundamental questions in science today.
