I think this approach could work.  I could also use the time to help
coordinate the MMA side of things.

It could be, though it may make sense to normalise it a bit more.

Before jumping that far into it, what I wanted to do was this:

Go off and work up a proposed model to deal with the major aspects of
it.  Anyone who wants to can do this.  I'm not talking a full API, just
some diagrams, some header files, even just paragraphs.  Describe how
you see it all fitting together, how it will flow, etc.

Then we can ask questions and poke holes in each proposed model.  At the
end of it, we can take all the good bits from each model.

This way, we don't get locked into one vision without exploring other
models.  I have seen things like this turn out amazing results.  When
you
go off on your own, you can dream up something that is very different
from other people.  Sometimes it is just a bad idea you find, sometimes
it is brilliance.

(This also buys me time to think some more about how this is going to
move forward.  I'm still not sure.. :)

I know I have a lot of ideas in my head.  It would be good to sit down
for a couple hours this week and next and get them sorted out, somewhat.

What think?
