To help evaluate meson, I've put together a list consisting of 6165 Github repos with (?m)^PGXS in the Makefile. It's structured in the alphabetical order of each parent repo, with possible children repos underneath, using Markdown nested lists. https://github.com/joelonsql/postgresql-extension-repos Perhaps such a list could be useful also for other purposes as well, maybe to create some new type of automated tests. /Joel
