OK, from my side, I'd vote for (in rough order of priority):
https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild-easyconfigs/pull/585,587,589,591 # It is 
1 split PR for ictce-5.3.0
https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild-easyconfigs/pull/552/files # massive 
templates fix
https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild-easyconfigs/pull/600/files # Lua/Lmod, 
good for bootstrapping EB
https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild-easyconfigs/pull/582/files # Coreutils; 
others need it
https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild-easyconfigs/pull/560 # Generic Mapping 
Tools (dep: #547)
https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild-easyconfigs/pull/596/files # gperftools, 
delivers libunwind (hint: UNITE)
https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild-easyconfigs/pull/610/files # povray, 
delivers libjpeg-turbo


On CUDA front, if you'd benefit from these, let's add in:
https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild-easyconfigs/pull/571 # PyCUDA
https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild-easyconfigs/pull/489 # Tesla Deployment 
Kit
https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild-easyconfigs/pull/546 # Rgputools 
The last one has received lot of effort, should be near-final, yet I am 
pragmatic...

On bioinfo front, be my guest to choose whatever is convenient and others 
desire:
https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild-easyconfigs/pull/592 # GATK
https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild-easyconfigs/pull/568 # FSA, Prank, SMALT, 
Infernal
btw. Jens had contrib'd somewhere intel-built Cufflinks, that would be good to 
include.

Also, to help you in sorting out the mess (most of these are NOT mine ;-) :
https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild-easyconfigs/pull/619 & 579 # BEDTools; 
@pescobar, @jens?
https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild-easyconfigs/pull/540 & 556 # Erlang, OCaml
The last might benefit just from some commenting on how to merge/align the two 
PRs.

Don't complain they are many, it was you asking for "mroe software, mroe PRs" 
;-)

What would help all of us, is to let Jenkins auto-test incoming PRs
and have a filtered-view of the ones that pass Jenkins testing.
It would turn looking at open PRs less scary and far more tractable.

*That* subset should be the _only_ one to consider in a merge-window!
(save for documented cross-deps, like in the ictce/5.3.0 sets mentioned above)

cheers,
Fotis
