I'd like to suggest that any new candidate for the standard library be discussed and then set aside for a cooling off period of ONE YEAR. If then folks can all agree the library is not only Goodness, but of general interest, especially for bootstrapping small projects, then take a vote, or the BDFL can decide.

A key criteria should be, "Will the new library help small projects get started by providing basic capabilities without introducing a steep learning curve?"

These are all thoughts that I can sympathize with.

Regards, Martin
