Hello Thomas,
thanks for your suggestion. I have been working on an updated list and
call from action from other developers.

Unfortunately I am currently snowed under (work) but.. if you have a
package that is very dear to you feel free to message me and the
maintainer.
I think it would be good to have even external user documentation if
not on the manual (e.g. on my package Db_Sqlite_Tools I do have the
external user documentation linked on the package page).

Cheers
David Costa
