See: http://www.suffix.com/Ada/SCL/ This is a group that is trying to
come up with a "Standard" component library (although not too much
progress has been made yet.) The notion would be to establish at least a
standard interface (Like ASIS) for various things such as data
structures, etc. You may want to look over the ideas posted there and
see if what you are interested in doing fits in to this in some way.
IMHO, if you pick some subset of the proposed component library and come
up with a good implementation, it will likely find acceptance.
Unless you were looking for a commercial venture?
