I'm not so sure about the duplicate thing. This directory aims to be a selection for organisational purposes and not a global repository of all Free/Libre/Open resources.

That said, perhaps it should stress this more limited scope and only retain tools that have clear organisational use and are easily accessible beyond the über-geeky communities.

That's nice, but why waste time doing duplicate work? The FSF's directory needs help and we could assist in improving that. I don't want to discourage anyone, but fragmentation is not our friend. We will do best by focusing our energy all in the same place. So while the etherpad is fine, I think it's nice to go to step 2 in our due diligence.

Due diligence:

1. Search for Free/Libre/Open resources before compromising on using proprietary 2. Search for existing directories / writings / sites / projects that could use our help before starting new ones

Just my few cents,
Aaron
