Hi David,

I think that's a great idea. We have three different projects with 
similar goals but very different approaches, GOK, SAW and onBoard.

It would be great cherry pick features from those and either work on 
some common code or at least try to find some synergies.

I'll set up a wiki page where we can list what we know about the 
different approaches and future goals. If those interested in 
participating would sign up there we can look for a mode of 
communication next (the oats team had a fancy web-cam conference recently).
