Description
As an operator of validator nodes I want to be able to invite other organizations to join my private cluster so that we can make our resources work together.
For example
Company A wants to build a public BIF deployment to back a paid service where people can transfer assets between 2 different networks.
Business is booming and soon Company A leadership decides that they want to partner with Company B so that they share the cost of running the infrastructure and double the marketing reach through their combined brands.
They issue a fancy press release announcing the partnership, shake hands and then give the problem of figuring out the rest to the engineering department who soon realizes that the data centers of Company B are on a different continent and moving their infrastructure is (of course) not an option.
So, they have to make it so that a cluster of BIF validator nodes are working together in a productive fashion even though the latency between them can be > 200ms at times which is a challenge when you have a leader election algorithm (Etcd/Raft) that is sensitive to latency.
