I'd want to see an automated test suite for the build.

I was thinking the exact same thing, so it's not tenuous.

+1 to OpenCola On GitHub idea :-)

I really like the way the community does it with Soylent (https://diy.soylent.com/recipes). Would love to see a community get behind something like this with Cola and improve on it / come up with variations.

There is a "base" recipe and people experiment, publish their own spin (ie we could see a cherry cola, vanilla, etc) people up vote it and the cream rises to the top and you get some great recipes.
