it was never clear stated what ECT is for and what ECT should do.
ATM i only see one point: rules for change owner of an ext key.

ECT was used in the past to make teams developing extensions together. 
This is now the forge projects, where any interested dev can join an 
existing project.

So before the devs uses ECT(list) it *must* consider what is ECT for.
There is a brief description in [1] i made long time ago. But ECT will 
only be an authority if this is clear and devs make usage of.

Anyway devs will commit their extensions to TER which is good and bad, 
but as it's open source anyone has the freedom to do that.

ECT was long time the "playground" for Elmar's lib/div so many people 
lost interest on ECT.
