Are we at a point in development where we can start talking about the abilities/restrictions/use of Minor races yet?
I'd like to revisit their role vis a vis GC2, where they didn't colonize at all, didn't have influence, and were (frankly) part of the most broken thing about GC2 - the espionage setup.
you can always ask it during one of the dev streams 
I'm sure they will be more or less the same then they were before. Perhaps with abit more civ5 city-state esque things mixed in, i.e. some minor forms of interaction.
Personally id like to see a way to let them join your empire without warfare, but trough diplomacy or trade instead.
OP better now than later.
I think minors should have many possibilities like being part of ideology. If invading we can choose enslavement thus gaining ideology points a turn for malevolent.
maybe we can specialize our civ relations.
or peacefully joining your empire like you said cat man.
or after a certain time they start colonization.
maybe they will just add to coolness like before with no improvement.
DARCA 
maybe they also shouldn't all have a super good quality planet you invade once they build a economic capital on it with no consequences too.
