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.

which is similar to today.
