Ok, I see numerous interesting ideas (I particularly like the idea of
ocamlbuild extended with the ability to download source code from

Is there anything clear enough to go forward ? Because if there is, we
can start drafting volunteers to finalize specifications and/or work on
the implementation.

Cheers,
 David
