Unless I have missed it, having the EM as a Forge project sounds as a good idea to gain visibility
across the community and also to get the chance to have more people getting involved.
+1 for that
Also, I wish we can precise the scope of the Extension Manager for the future and define the large
picture. Currently, it is unclear the extend of the goals and I would second Tolleiv's concern here
(cf. above) in the regard the EM does to many things.
A good start would be to write User Stories to define the requirements of the module.
