leps LEP-006: external module repository

Dec 31 '17 00:12 CurlyMoo

Hey @CurlyMoo, thanks for writing this! We somehow already agreed upon doing that, quite some time ago, however not much has happened since: https://github.com/libuv/libuv-extras

I think what we need to kickstart it is a story for the build system, and some initial code. You seem to already have the code ready, which is great, maybe send an initial PR with one of the modules to trigger the discussion?

Do we want to start the discussion with an initial PR, or do we want to have some guideliness set before we do that PR? It now seems that everything is possible :smile:

At this point I'd say let's go with a PR, that would give reviewers some code to work with. As I said the idea for an extras repo has existed for a while, but nobody has put the effort in adding code there so far, so I don't see how more discussion around guidelines is going to make an impact ;-)

I've pushed the first code to https://github.com/libuv/libuv-extras/pull/2
