Before I totally forget about it... I think it might be a very clever thing to do to have some web-based thing (wiki or whatever, ideally a social network kind of thing) were LAD people can notify of what they are working on and what are their plans, so that it's easier to: a. know about it and b. start cooperations, etc. For example, Dave is doing lots of stuff that I plan to reuse, but I only know it because I happen to lurk on #lv2 on freenode from time to time, and the same goes for lots of stuff I'm seeing coming out lately. If it is a problem for me to keep up to date with this stuff, I can only imagine what it would be like for a newcomer. I can't comment on this more now, but please somebody consider the idea.
