[Panel-devel] data engines

[Franz Keferböck]

More engine- and applet ideas pop up in one point (IRC in that case),
somewhere else people ask for them, as they want to do something, but
don't know where to start; we could collect these ideas at one point
(techbase) and point people there to post ideas there resp. collect
them when eager to pick up some rather easy task.
