One thing I always feel this forum is missing is a section for work in progress projects, even if they never end up anywhere. Right now people are shy about their projects, so the only way you learn about them is by finding mentions of them such as these, when they're released on DUB repository or when someone makes an announcement post on Announce. The problem with Announce is that people only use it for official releases - and that's good - but we're missing out on all the work in progress buzz.
I always reference the old dsource forums - http://dsource.org/forums/ - click at that, it's a graveyard now, but imagine going there back then - so exciting! So many fun projects. It's fun to scroll around and see what people are doing and maybe even join them in their effort. Most of these projects never got out of wip stages and got abandoned later on, but they were certainly interesting. Even now, many years later I like to browse them to look for inspiration and see what people were after.
I'd really love a "Projects" section here on these forums, with perhaps sections for "WIP" and "Releases", so that people can post all the cool stuff they are working on for others to see.
