We have something *like* this:
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Software_projects
I've done some edits to include a few of the core libraries in the page,
describe the purpose of the projects and do some general introduction
stuff. We'd need the individual projects to keep their entries updated
to make it effective.
There's a related page:
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Software_ideas
which is currently rather sparse. I've just gone through collecting the
various project ideas from across the wiki onto that page in order to
provide a centralised location for proposing software categories for
focus. It could use considerable fleshing out.
I'll keep thinking about ways to make this more useful,
Mike
