What would be required make this a reallity and not just talk?

Would trying to collect all current libs (like luafilesystem and
lposix) and list all functions be a start? 

Where could this be done? On wiki?

I expect to have to write some needed functions/libs, but I would
really prefer to contribute to standard library in a bigger picture
rather than just making my own modules in yet another luaforge project
that overlap 3 other but add one useful extra func.

PS. I just discovered ex on wiki, but I think I am looking for
something bigger. Maybe something like CPAN for perl or PEAR for php.
