As many as want to “join” – all I would ask as far as paperwork goes is that prospects disavow the initiation of force or fraud against anyone else for any reason at any time as a way to get things done, whether it’s building roads, providing food, energy or medical care, running a school, or dealing with thieves and murderers.
As for a description, just about every libertarian has their own ideas on how things would be set up and proceed – see Unanimous Consent and the Utopian Vision by L. Neil Smith.
See also the Unanimous Consent Covenant.

I’d like to know if the Tea Party movement will continue as a viable force in American politics.

Maybe I did call this one when I attended the ATP’s Patriot Action Team meetings – I challenged the others present to not bite on the hook offered by the GOP and get reeled in, as happened in 2001 after George Worthless Bush took over the White House.
What happened between 15 April 2010 and 15 April 2011 such that attendance dropped so much – aside from the GOP taking control of the U.S. House, the Governor’s Mansion in Santa Fe, and other political offices?
Colonel Robert F. Cunningham said:
Mike,You’re right about the numbers … I was there … and found the problem brewing long before it began to spill.
SOME of the TEAP leadership required THEIR version of Jesus – or else – they wouldn’t pass on your emails, comments, advice, et cetera; wouldn’t post them either; regardless of how accurate or apropos.
I’ve heard this sort of thing from a friend (who isn’t a big Tea Party guy, by the way) who’s been promoting Gary Johnson, only to have people say, “He doesn’t go to church.”
When and IF they get off the “Jesus or else” kick, they may become wise enough to see the danger we’re neck deep in. But I doubt that will ever happen.
My friend who is promoting Johnson likes to ask these people “How much will you worry about Johnson not going to church after Obama’s policies have you eating out of a dumpster?”
As for Muslim threats against Obama and George XLIII (Bush), why would they take action against the people who can really do (who have actually done, at this point!) the sort of damage against America that Osama and the Forty Al-Qaeda could only dream of?
