yes, this is good!
Being a module maintainer is not a big task, it's only about getting things
organized: organize an IRC meeting or a mail discussion about this app, get
the word out that some apps are unmaintained, ... Other developers in the
module will feel federated by someone being a bridge being the whole project
and their app.
It happened that way for Edu and Games.
When we have a maintainer for each module we'll maybe also start to care more
about the release process itself, something I personally had no time nor
competence to do and I left it all to Dirk (thanks for your work!). But in
the future we could be more vigilant on the compilation quality when coming
near a tagging day and try to help more for the release.

yes, what about a techbase page?
