Description

https://typelevel.org/cats/typelevelEcosystem.html

https://github.com/typelevel/cats/blob/0f18d6faf5f61243eee8b7412a57f6a224761d7d/docs/typelevelEcosystem.md?plain=1#L1

This page is not specific to Cats and it duplicates the listing at https://typelevel.org/projects/. So I think we should move these projects there, and the Cats page can simply redirect to it.

The tricky bit with this migration is that currently the way to get listed on that page is to submit a project as an affiliate. So what to do about all the non-affiliate projects on this list?

Research direction

Start with docs/typelevelEcosystem.md and compare it with the listing at typelevel.org/projects/. Review how projects currently become affiliates, then determine how the non-affiliate entries should be handled. Done means the listing migration is resolved and the Cats page redirects appropriately.
