Heya, Dudes, you should work with Brian Cameron from Sun on this - I'm pretty sure he'll pick up this thread, but he's done a HUGE amount of work in this space already.
I personally think a step by step effort working down through your list is awesome - rather than doing everything at the one time, get the initial ISV porting guide out for Level 0 *now*. Level 1+ is a hell of a lot harder to start thinking about because you're basically guaranteeing a compatibility roadmap for ISVs, and I've found [in my experience], that involves a lot more thought. FWIW, I don't think this is just a marketing thing - this involves a lot of commitment from the developers too, and a level of understanding that I'm not quite sure is there yet.
