On a similar note, it may be worthwhile to document the various source
repositories of for-Haiku software. This list could/would be displayed
on OSDrawer, as it already is a central location of many for-Haiku
repositories. Earlier today, a blank wiki page was created but it may
only be editable by the OSDrawer site admins. The most obvious benefit
is that it reduces the effort needed by anyone to find the sources to
a particular application -- ideally, it'll even encourage new comers
to contribute to existing projects.
Here's the desired target page:
http://dev.osdrawer.net/projects/osdrawer/wiki/External_Projects
