I believe the current effort referenced by the blueprint is focusing on moving existing code into the incubator for reuse, to make it easier to restructure later. Alexei, do I have that correct? I was starting to feel like an (unnecessary) bottleneck, so my goal for this email thread was to step out of the middle of the conversation, and make sure everyone who is doing the work knows about each other so you can all coordinate directly. If we need more details for requirements and a design, let's start writing them up. Maybe a wiki page or etherpad to get started, and turn that into blueprints when ready? Who wants to take that on?
