Good point. I was thinking about following a UML process.  Start with
Scenerios, define actors, create Use Cases, create requirements...

>From an "infrastructure" side, we will need to decide on standards,
frameworks, methodologies....Oh CHRIST, this is sounding like real work!

However, the first step is decide on a place to hold all of these
discussions, or tracks of work.

Sounds pretty good, but might I suggest that all of this start with a well
defined requirements document?  What is the purpose of the project?  What
functionality will be included, broken out by module?  What other aspects of
the project are there to be taken into consideration (Frameworks,
methodologies, etc...).  What constraints are there for the project scope
(must run on shared hosts, use specific mappings, database support, etc...)?

Each one of the items below are pretty hefty systems within their own right.
Tying them all together in a single cohesive interface would be nightmarish
without a good project plan...  Sorry... the CMMI level 5 processes where I
work are beginning to rub off on me...

Cheers,

Jeff

How about "Order Management"?  This encompasses at least:
1.  Products
2.  Catalogs
3.  Shopping Cart
4.  Customers
5.  Orders
6.  Shipping
7.  Invoicing
8.  Billing/Charge Cards
