I agree 200% !

That's a multipath communication that could improve Lunar: devs or contributors
talking to each others improving modules they take care off. Given that small
"thematic" groups could *emerge* around a particular set of modules ;)...

Example : I take care of e17 or kino. People that use / know theses software
could ask me and we can talk off the list of those topics returning to the main
discussion channel with improved modules / ideas.

Whereas today all moonbase stuff is done by a *very* small group of devs that
can't handle the thousands of modules we have.

Best regards,
Couannette
