GRupal - Advanced Drupal Development in Grand Rapids, MI

I'm working with a system where custom routing had to be implemented using hook_url_inbound_alter. The layout is basically, "mastergroup" as the main group, and "projects" as the child group (set as a group and group content, with the group audience set to "mastergroup". So, the urls have to be as follows:
- mastergroup/group-url-alias (the main group content)
- mastergroup/group-url-alias/projects (list of projects for the current group)
- mastergroup/group-url-alias/projects/project-url-alias (project details page)

I'm not a PHP coder, but I would like to share an idea... What about developing some kind of "general routing API" module, to standardize how routes are managed within Drupal. Some kind of abstraction layer for routing webservices (like Google or Bing ones).

As a separate discussion from number validation, I've attached a short bit about AAA for text services. It's a PDF as it was a bit long to cut & paste into a posting, and it's not finished but I don't really want to make it much longer as it's already sleep-inducing ;-)
