I agree that documentation is probably a serious problem. I can spend at
least some time working on the documentation. At least helping work up
some standards and doing a few example modules.

Agreed 100+%... Documentation is - after visibility - one of the great 
weaknesses with 'community supplied' extensions. As the people who 
created the extensions often don't need any documentation themselves, 
this is only natural.

Maybe a standardized form of docuemtation could be the 'barrier of 
entry' for inclusion of a module into the distro?

Another one comes to mind, which is terms of licence. A overall Lua 
licence might be disireable, but maybe some modules could be included 
with explicit statements as to varying licence terms..
