it seems that it's just what Andreas did ;) Consider it like Litmus, we 
test the tool, try some dev on it to make sure it's the one that will 
satisfy our needs, a rough dev is first done and then presented to the 
community to see if everything is ok. Coming with nothing imho always 
lead to a lot of discussions without clearing or hurrying the 
implementation.

So now that Andreas has announce it, please, don't hesitate to test and 
give your feedback. As he said, he only work on his spare time on it, so 
it may goes slowly, but if he gets some help, every body will be happy :)

Kind regards
