FEX decided to not support page sizes >4k, which is fair (it's a lot of work), but it means that it won't be usable on Apple silicon, so that's not an option.
Not exactly what you're asking for, but `lovely-forks` [1] shows you "notable forks of Github repositories under their names", where "notable" is defined by comparing the number of stars.

The conformance tests are open source and will be available from day 1 ;)

As far as participating in the design of the standard, are you really saying you'd want everyone and their mother to have their word? I think it's best to leave this to GPU vendors and engine implementers, as they're the ones who know how it can work.
