I think the best way to go about these types of efforts is to: (1) build a coalition with agreed upon goals, governance, etc. (2) define the desired systems and architecture for it (3) define the file formats and wire protocols to support the features/functionality (4) start building it

There would need to be conferences every 6 or 12 months. There would also need to be lots of documentation, training, videos, podcasts, etc.

It would be a huge effort but possibly also extremely rewarding.
