The discoverability remains unaddressed. The existing "components overview" [1] does not do justice to the current (and emerging) situation where more and more Genode software resides outside our central repository. Maybe a community-managed plain list of links to projects (be it in the form of Goa projects or components hosted at the world repository or in other forms) would be good start? Still, someone would need to assert the responsibility to host and curate such a list.
when reading this, I remembered your original posting in which you mentioned presenting the README files of software packages in the GUI. Maybe we should make it a habit to add the URL of the original source-code repository in those README files. This way, a list of software packages and their origins could be extracted from the depot.
