[wp-hackers] Plugin Site

[Steve]

This is exactly the same idea I was working on putting together. 
Something for WP that is the equal in funcationality to mt-plugins but

I was looking at doing it as a diretory in which categories were created 
and people just created links to the page where they released the plugin.
