Hi Adam, I can tell you've thought about this and I agree with your sentiment. This is an area I'm passionate about since
I've been implementing OSS solutions in a third-world environment recently and there's been no way to tell if the solution I'm using is the best one out there or if it's just because I happened to know of them.
I think engineering hours are valuable and if put towards the right projects, can catalyze better progress throughout the world.
I'd love to speak more about this and possibly brainstorm standards or licenses with you. You can use meet.grey.software to find a convenient time for you :)
BTW on line 6, I think you meant there instead of their :)
How’s it going, I'm a Adam, a Full-Stack Engineer, actively searching for work. I'm all about JavaScript. And Frontend but don't let that fool you - I've also got some serious Backend skills.

We all get the sense, that fear of the reinvented wheel, often as was expressed in the comments, "innovation", gives us the reason to break from standards the falasey that nobody can tell if they have just inovated a pre-existing standard, as you say, without prior knowledge. I think discovering the dead projects and living projects will prove this to be true, birth good ideas and educate authors.
I think this could be a project to start a platform to help authors find similarities between other projects and I suppose it could be defined by a configuration file features.json
Beyond this, I think we would need a lot of contributors and some really good ideas.
