The document proposes a shared online services platform for the development sector. The platform would provide common services like data collection, peer review, volunteer engagement, milestone reporting, mapping, SMS services, and project reporting. These services would be built as "thin services layers" on top of shared "data interchange services" with authentication, billing, and access functionality. The goal is to create an "App Store" approach bringing together different organizations in the development space to work together and share services and skills.
