It means that these are new modules that don't have full man pages yet.

In 5.7, help pages are automatically generated by combining a HTML-ized
version of 'x.module --help' and whatever notes, hints, and examples are
in a file called description.html in the the module's source code
directory.

This makes it a lot easier & less work to keep the help pages up to
date.


try:
x.module --html-description

to get the basic header.


So that list is really just a focused call for 'volunteer needed'...
