I did this once, long ago.  Nothing really came of it, but the set of
specs might be useful information. See:

  http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/platform/2005-April/000128.html

The surrounding threads are entertaining discussion.  I highly recommend
avoiding treating this project as anything other than documentation of
de-facto standards.  Definition of a platform is a wholly other (ugly)
problem.
