I meant to ask for help to other groups:

I think we should talk to other projects to see their point of view, and 
to be able to define a generic enough solution. Else we would fall into a 
limited solution that would leave us nearly where we are now (each project 
dealing with their own solution).

And maybe it would be interesting to create a new common project to 
concentrate all these projects' people doing the kernel, for example.
