+1. Exemplary implementation reads better
as well.

I my mind COSMOS was intended to provide an extensible
framework that will allow interoperability and integration of system management
tools (open source or proprietary), beside of the exploration and reference
implementation of some existing or emerging standards in this space.
If
we tag the result of the project as being just demonstrative instead of
exemplary, in my view we may reduce the attractiveness of the project.
In
the incubation phase it may not reach the exemplary level, which should be
fine. 
Thanks !

 Ok, here is my first cut at the elevator
speech for COSMOS, so we have 
something to yell about at the beginning of the
phone call.  Please feel 
free to yell by email beforehand....  
Specifically, do each of you 
think that your management would agree that they
want to continue to 
":invest" in COSMOS with this elevator
pitch?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 COSMOS is an open source, vendor neutral effort
to explore emerging 
standards in the context of system monitoring.
 COSMOS is developing a 
demonstration implementation using those open
standards to prove the 
concepts.   Standards being explored are:
SML, CML, WSDM..
  Questions:
  ------------
  i) Can we list the specific standards that
we are exploring?  Or do 
we want to say "Standards being explored
include..."  Is my list 
complete enough?
 ii) It would be more powerful to say that
montoring vendors are 
cooperating together to do this.   Can we?
 Something like "COSMOS is an 
open source, vendor neutral effort to explore
emerging standards in the 
context of system monitoring.  The effort
includes monitoring vendors 
IBM, CA, CompuWare and GroundWork."
