That's a fantastic idea!
The other developers could focus on creating the management application and 
also don't need to care about the low-level details any more (like different 
SQL databases or LDAP directories).

I would be glad to host such a project and provide ideas and code and I've 
dared to set up a project page for this:

Hope to get many ideas and code from you and all other interested parties :-)
