+1 for listing packages that have documentation on WORG.
Although we may need to check if that documentation is up-to-date,
especially for packages that used to be in org-contrib. Maybe contact
the maintainers to double-check.

There gotta be a way to do it programmatically I think. We should be able
to fetch all the packages from ELPA/MELPA and search for names matching ob-*.
