At this point I think that we can start to talk about technical stuff like roadmap, tasks, volunteers recruitment and so on :)
The basic steps, IMHO, can be:
- Identify which externals to include in the repo (for linux users, the
folder /usr/lib/pd-extended/extra can be a good starting point) 2. Identify which externals need to be compiled (some of them, as far as I rememer, are not "true" external library, but a pd patch [intrinsically cross-platform??]) 3. Identify which externals are mainteined/unmaintained, and eventually, contact the maintainers just to say: "hello, we are creating a shared repo of externals. Are you interested? and so on..." 4. Prioritize (i.e. most used extensions have the priority). 5. Assign tasks
In that context, a web platform can help to accomplish this preliminary steps. For example github (that has a project wiki), or Azendoo (free -and simple!- collaborative project management), to name a few. I'm not an expert of this platform, but I use github for small projects and IMHO, Azendoo (or something like that) it can help a lot for discussions, task management and so on, without flooding the mailing list :)
Here is just my thoughts... any idea/suggestion/alternative are appreciated! :)
Cheers

Well, for starters, there could just be a repository with externals and libraries :)
I'm willing to help somehow. I'm not a programmer only, but I can help organising it and stuff. Testing libraries, listing it, etc.
Cheers
