Yeah we had a great discussion, but the original goal got lost in all kind of technical details (which was actually interesting) the original discussion was something like "how do I find related projects to contribute to?" and I believe the nice graph is part of that solution but not the whole solution. I believe we could in addition use a "ebay" page, where projects can make small advertisements about a problem or sub project they need solved. There are probably committers in other projects who fancy solving it and an advert might make them interested in the project. > Note that projects-new.a.o is the planned future replacement for > projects.a.o - there are *significant* differences, so you need to look > at the About page and the source repo.
