The idea is that implementations of gateways and nodes may be completed
independently. There certainly is a requirement for Supplier A's gateway to
be used with Supplier B's nodes, however. This requires the protocol
between nodes and gateways to be specified.
It is intended that nodes might additionally be used in heterogeneous
clusters, but I admit there is not an urgent requirement for this.

Title: Rayo Clustering
Question for the authors, because it's not clear to me.
We have tended to shy away from standardising clustering protocols, as
these are perceived as being an implementation detail, rather than
needed for interop between different implementations; is the purpose
of this proposal that independent implementations will be run in a
heterogeneous cluster, and if so how likely is this to happen?
