I do not have much time currently so I cannot follow the discussions and
respond as often as I would like to.
Mapping "legacy" consolidations to hipster packages could be a preliminary
step to determine where the effort is needed and decided which versions to
freeze for the next "dev".
A set of wiki pages could be used to formalize the process as it is done
for some JDS packages and actually get people to open tickets on the
tracker instead of just posting on the mailing list.

I can only help punctually to update/fix/add packages, some of them are
waiting in my branches but I have no time lately.
Having a space where to share information might help people like me to
catch the ball when they have time (if ever), like "skim through the
tracker, pick a favourite, fix" as I did with adding lft for Pedrag afew
weeks ago.
Moving forward with hipster to ease assembling future releases seems a
priority:  the difficulty to get bash into dev supports what Alexander
repeated several times, "lower the entry barrier, ease the building
process".
I guess once the JDS consolidation is fully buildable in hipster things
will become more streamlined ?
Best regards

Aurelien
