Great to hear you have so many apps and happy you're willing to share your knowledge with others. There are two things we're currently working on: a) Bill on command line tooling proposals. b) Matthew on Form proposals.
Initially Bill will focus on basics; only when we get clarity on Forms may we expand the scope of command line tooling (chicken and egg :) In any case, getting your input would be very valuable. If you are willing to sign a CLA and share your work with us that would be great. It means we can take ideas/code from what you did; also your feedback to the eventual proposals would be very valuable. And of course, you could also help us in other ways... Thanks for sharing!
