AppleScript Libraries will be made by ASOC scripts, not by pure AppleScript, I think.
We have not to build a house on a bog.

Many people are afraid of Yosemite’s bug mountain (volcano). They still stay at OS X,10.9 or earlier.
So, a mixture of 10.10 and 10.9 is not minority, I feel.

I think, “How about AppleScript Libraries” theme seems below than others.
Xcode, Xcode, Xcode!
Xcode is the most important & severe matter.

Never underestimate the value of plucking low-hanging fruit just because it isn't exciting and attention-grabbing (a common developer error). Getting half-dozen nice standard AS libraries into 10.11 would provide significant benefit to all AS users at little cost to the AS team themselves.
I think, they should *not* make AppleScript Libraries by themselves. Because their sense is far from admiration.
Their sample script has been a terrible dream. And they have a few resources.
They should gather opinion from scripters. And, they have to invite applications, like *you* or Shane Stanley or the other scripters to make Apple genuine Script Libraries.
