That's an interesting question. There have been some common projects that
seemed to work OK (NGL for instance, although it seems the project is dead or
stalled nowadays, please correct me if I'm wrong), and others which never
really took off (like the Grouplang project we had on the list 4 years, and to
which I participated). You could always try to see what happens...
