Yes, there was enough talk and not much action. Let's changed that!

I'll do that. I would say we use hildon-extras as the garage project
name and use the "He" prefix in our code. So, for example,
HeColorChooser, HE_IS_COLOR_CHOOSER, HE_TYPE_COLOR_CHOOSER, etc...
It's short and Andrew is already using it.

I let you all know once it's set up. And everyone how wants to
contribute can join of course.

Objections?
