: 6. Final point has already been discussed in the past. It is about misc : packages and pieces of code. I propose the creation of 5 packages: : - miscGraphics (keywords: misc, Graphics) : - miscStatistics (keywords: misc, Statistics) : - miscMathematics (keywords: misc, Mathematics) : - miscBasics (keywords: misc, Basics) : - miscProgramming (keywords: misc, Programming)
Rather than preset the categories perhaps evolving them would be better, just starting out with a single Misc package and then decomposing it into multiple packages as the categories become clear.
Those categories are taken from KEYWORDS (master entries). I guess it wouldn't be difficult to still have substancial entries for those packages, if some misc package maintainer would make the job to break their package into pieces. BTW, I have to admit this choice is not easy to make for several reasons, the main one beeing to keep the ability to modify one's own contributions.
For those packages, a collaborative plattform such as SourceForge and so on, with Sync-ability, could be a good choice.
