I'm looking here that have a lot of lists around github, but they are scattered.
Then why not propose a new Organization for all lists? Administration continues with each other as is now, however, the organization will provide visibility for all lists.
So it will be easy for a list group to help each other list group.

I don't really see the benefit tbh. Discovery is already solved by my
awesomelist. From experience people have more incentive to make good lists when have the feeling of ownership.@h4cc commented on GitHub (Jun 24, 2015):
Combining all lists would need to combine formatting rules and maybe CI-jobs like my list has for checking content.
I cant see the value/benefit in this approach.
What could be quite handsome, would be some kind of an aggregator, combining awesome lists automatically.

Are you another one who had this idea, I believe that we all have received an invite from someone with the same proposal.
I see no need.

@jondot commented on GitHub (Jun 24, 2015):
I see no need as well, different people have a different sense of what's awesome, and making the one-true-list for what's awesome is bound for trouble.
@isRuslan commented on GitHub (Jun 24, 2015):
These compilations will provide visibility for all lists:
@n1trux commented on GitHub (Jun 24, 2015):
The whole awesome-awesomes, awesome-awesomeness and whatnot lists should be merged into @sindresorhus' "awesome" repository as "master point" for discovery. In my opinion he's way more active and the list is structured better than the other "lists of lists".
I already merged and deleted mine.
Every topic should have its own list and maintainer.
@h4cc agreeing in that aggregator point. We need an easy to use web site for this. I propose http://getgrav.org as cms, as it could display markdown content without converting.
What do y'all think of that?
@joubertredrat commented on GitHub (Jun 24, 2015):
Hi guys,
My idea isn't join or merge lists, is only create a common place for lists, like apache foundation as example, have a lot of open source projects, but each project has its own team.
but I agree with the @sindresorhus about ownership of list.
@avelino, I tried to see that repository, but I didn't found information about, probably it was removed.

The only value I see is such org can increase discoverability of different lists. @sindresorhus, not all lists in Github start w/
awesome, and some people might not even know that such lists exist. So if we put them under the organization, people might discover more.@sindresorhus commented on GitHub (Jun 24, 2015):
Not all lists in my
awesomelist do either. You're just repeating what has already been answered.@inputsh commented on GitHub (Jun 24, 2015):
In my opinion @sindresorhus's list does a great job combining them and it's the most popular one at the moment. Consider it as a search engine. It even got to GitHub's daily digest a couple of times. That's how I found out about it. Now I do respect other
awesome-awesomenesslists as well, but I think his list does the best job at the moment, while keeping the standards high at the same time.Now the only thing we could theoretically do is to create a real search engine (website) where people could type something (like
sysadmin,linuxor something) and be redirected to the appropriate list on GitHub.Or we could cooperate with a search engine like @DuckDuckGo and create a new instant answer on their search engine that triggers the word
awesome, searches through @sindresorhus's list and shows the list if it if finds one on his list as an instant answer. I went ahead and created an Instant Answer idea on the DuckDuckGo's site for suggesting instant answers. You could vote for it so it gets more attention (WARNING: Registration required to vote).@n1trux commented on GitHub (Jun 24, 2015):
@aleksandar-todorovic 👍 👍
maybe voting tomorrow, but certainly considering creating a simple site in August, when I have more free time.
@sindresorhus commented on GitHub (Jun 24, 2015):
I already have an issue about creating some guidelines awesome lists are suggested to follow to keep up the quality. Feedback welcome: https://github.com/sindresorhus/awesome/issues/207
@diegocard commented on GitHub (Jun 25, 2015):
I don´t see the need for a new organization. On the other hand, a set of guidelines could be useful.
@Fr0sT-Brutal commented on GitHub (Jun 25, 2015):
So we had awesome lists, then awesome lists of awesome lists and now we need to go deeper? I don' think these lists differ much so it's easier to take the most full one as a base and merge links from other lists into it.
@n1trux commented on GitHub (Jun 27, 2015):
closed because of @sindresorhus' https://github.com/sindresorhus/awesome/issues/207
Consensus is that we don't need an org but better quality, continue discussion there.
