How can Paketo converge on a common buildpack toolkit?

[ryanmoran]

The current set of Paketo buildpacks fall into 2 distinct camps when it comes to the toolkits used in their development: those using libcnb and libpak, and others using packit. Having this dual toolkit ecosystem confuses our users and contributors and may act as a barrier to entry in some cases. In this discussion, I'd like to start a conversation to help us move towards reconciling these differences.

Here are a topics that might help us to get started:

• Outline the philosophies behind the 2 toolkits we use.
• Identify the goals we collectively share in using these toolchains.
• Identify the smallest step we can take to move towards a converged toolkit.
• Identify areas where we already have agreement but maybe don't know it.
