We've created a google doc which we will be updating whenever what is contained in an extension changes.
Ideally we'd only have one extension, but due to the way workshop works only one person can push to a single workshop mod, so we have needed to create multiples. This document also shows who maintains each of them (this is just a logistical detail).
Our hope is that by centralizing this information it will help to make what is included in these mods less mysterious, as well as give us a place to elaborate on the "why" of some of these changes.

Nu, but for you... it could be.
You beta use this doc, though, or it will be alpha nothing.
Omega-wd, dem puns.
...I'll show mu-self out.
I'm back and I've got quality posts for everybody
This is your final warning about those puns.
Btw, is having that many mods have any significant performance impact? (just curious)
The amount of modifications loaded does not indicate their impact onto the performance in any way. The only thing that matters for performance is the amount of extra steps needed for each update per move/tick.
In the case of extensions it doesn't matter how we ship the code changes if they would end up one way or the other in the vanilla game anyway.
More details about how mod file mounting works can be found in this ancient modding guide draft of mine: https://goo.gl/128GvS
(also that doc is new to me and quite helpful
