Gaby,

Mostly what I'm looking for is for us to get a clear grasp of the
problems we're trying to solve with modularization of the standard
library. P0581 lays out a solution quite well, but I want to hear more
about the problems (ex: overload sets, performance implications of
large vs small modules, user impact of the current crufty
organization) and which of them we want to prioritize solving.

I think this mailing list thread has largely answered my question
about what we want to do (or at least, what the options are).

Thanks for your insight!
