There were a few legal experts, but primarily just people who want to get off the planet by building a space elevator.  What I ended up taking away from it were a few things.  I think we should work within the structure of the current U.N. agreement COPUOS to get the building started, but parallel, we should be working on a brand new constitution and Legal set of principles which I started to outline here.
