I think this is a fine idea, but it needs to be managed. We don't want an area where anyone can upload anything. It could easily become filled with things that don't even compile, and would cause folks more headaches than it would relieve. So if someone would like to volunteer to administer this area, then I'm for it. Administration would include some limited testing of each contributed module, ensuring that each has documentation, rejecting poorly written modules, writing a top-level document that describes all contributed modules, etc. Anyone interested?
