Guiding exemplary questions:
What parts of the system should be subjected to standardization?
- Data formats (is XML the answer?), APIs, programming models?

- For a start:
What should not be standardized?
- What concepts are most in flux, application dependent, etc.
What standards exist today in this space?
What are their limitations?
