good point, i also had mostly forgotten about that.
a good example of how that could work is djangopackages.com, i haven't
seen the code or how is it maintained; but the result is certainly
useful:
- lots of packages
- categorized lists
- feature comparison matrices
- links to homepage, project page, docs
- graphs and statistics pulled from github/bitbucket
- rankings on pulled stats.
- automated warnings on possibly abandoned projects
just checked and it's based on OpenComparison. from the very top of
their page:"We offer free subdomains to open-source languages, web
frameworks, and other projects." should we ask for one? or maybe
somebody can dedicate some serverspace to host an instance
