Hi,

As an outside observer it seems like there's two approaches, to
either develop something as a grass-roots community effort
and build running code/consensus, and then work upwards to standardisation.
Or begin with a formal consortium and beginning defining
standards with code to follow.

The chemical community has taken the former approach, and
have been quite successful.
