H.G, my interest is getting a group of people to agree to standards for
communications between systems that would enable people who make different
components have them work together. The standards would be open standards,
to facilitate people creating different parts. These standards get
adopted, and work well, then there is a chance someone could create a
plug-in for Zillions that would enable it to also be involved.
My interest isn't in Zillions, per-se. Zillions was used as an example
to describe what I was going for. I am interested in the 'plumbing'
being able to work. This would enable what you are working on to connect
to other systems in the network, without having to fully understand what
people have in their systems.
So Zillions and GC has to refer to interoperabilty.
