@alcinnz I often look at the huge list of libraries being downloaded when I 'cargo install' something and wonder if there's some better library that does the same thing but the author just doesn't know. I'd love more curated library lists for that reason.

@mikebabcock There's the Python approach of bundling a large suite of modules with the language...But everyone seems to like these module repos now!

@alcinnz I actually prefer the #Rust / #Perl method of having a good online repo for fetching libraries and Python has evolved dramatically in that way since the introduction of pip. That said, I still prefer curated well-known libraries that I can look up somewhere and probably trust because of who listed them. I'm the kind of programmer who wants to read reviews of libraries before using them.
