You are a funny one

First you are starting that project on write only language and then 
looking for a mantainer???

Here i was really surprised how perfect our naming convention is:
only 11 libs couldn't be induced automagically:

warn: no module for lib found: [PresenterScreen,SunPresentationMinimizer,
desktopbe1,gcc3_uno,gconfbe1,localebe1,qstart_gtk,soffice_bin,
testtools_bridgetest,testtools_constructors,testtools_cppobj]

All other libs just worked.

done  ;-)
so we have now manual page with developer guide, just try

bin/module-deps.pl --man

and other usefull options:

     --help
     --verbose
     --version
     --from-file
     --to-file
     --output

As Stephan pointed out we have "include only" dependencies that we 
should take care of.
Anyway now we have something that start to make sense:

As always, master has the latest...
Let me print it on say 2-3 meters and bring it to the next Hackfest/LO 
Congress ;-)
