This site wasn't on my radar, but I find it very useful:
http://crosswire.org/wiki/Modules_in_the_beta_repository#Commentary_Modules

Many of these (well documented) issues appear easily fixed.  For example
the 'emptyvss' issues are likely simple problems to fix.  It appears the
purpose of this page is to impose a QA process on modules before they are
permitted in the main.  If so, there also appears to be procedural
impediments easily solved (such as confirming a module appears complete
..etc)

Does each module have a contact or point person in charge, or if someone is
willing to work on some of these issues what's the procedure for offering
to help fix some of these issues?
