So before I start to go much farther on this (and start to dive into what

get general feedback (especially from the projects that have these kinds of
implementations) if this is a worthwhile path to even try to go down.
IIUC we use such a mechanism in a few Telemetry projects to share
information between agents.
For example, Gnocchi metricd workers talk together and provide each
others their numbers of CPU so they can distribute fairly the number of
jobs they should take care for. They use that same mechanism to know
if/how every agent is alive.
We've been using that technology for 3 years now, and we named it
"tooz". You may have heard of it. ;-)
Cheers,
Whattttts that, ha,
But ya, one of the outcomes is tooz; but I'm not even sure there is
information being shared about the duplication that is happening
(projects seem to silo themselves with regards to stuff like this).
So I guess one of the first goals would be to undo that siloing, though
if nobody from the projects cares about doing things in the same way
using the same toolkit, then I'd say we are more screwed then I thought,
lol.
