This sort of thing costs real, serious, hard earned cash. It would seem to be just the sort of thing where distributions put aside differences and cooperate. Everyone would get much further on the available cash.

OK: I know that these criteria cover: one version, one set of hardware; but there is a lot of commonality & some sort of cooperation should be possible.

The other thing to remember is that this says what a system is *capable* of, not what is achieves (think: root passwords on post it notes on the monitor).
