Indeed, and as I remember I volunteered for this one :-)

I second this, except for the multimedia stuff.

I would go. Legacy which contains the old stuff, defunct for the
programs that don't work but still might be of value (for example
gpe-irc), libs, base (which contains the basic GPE programs) and extra
for all the rest. Eventually we can split out libs in base libs and
other libs.

I do need some help with the naming there :-)

Cheers,

Philippe
