I am not sure whether a choice has already been made, but I like to 
second John's and Jules' statements and arguments here.

As far as I can see, the general concept of the usage of compute 
resources is orthogonal to the general concept of the usage of storage 
resources.
This is what we discovered and discussed step by step during the meeting 
last week - I think.

Of course we will have go through the details and should analyze some 
variety of realistic use cases before we should make the final design 
decisions.

However, currently I have no doubt that we might end up with a resource 
usage model that will require for different schemas, one for the 
description of the consuption of compute resources where the attributes 
startTime and endTime make sense and another for the current consumption 
storage resources which could be represented by long-time archives as 
well as by short.time storages.

Regards,
Johannes
