Time to make a Freshmeat kind of Squeak site ?

Seem like more people have an interest in this area, and there is a lot of
good
suggestion's of stuff. I don't know anything about swiki scripting but
I've been thinking about is using a mail filter to do the update of the
swiki, if that is the server, and have a mail form in Celeste that one fill

in and the rest is done by the swiki script. Maybe also a cached html form
will do the magic.
And have the form set up like  Stefan mentioned with the name,  category
etc. maybe
also a password, so only the developer can access the top of the page.
The bottom is a comments field for users.
That way the update of the site will be less painful for the developer.
Just open the
cached page and fill in the new version specs, bug fixes etc. and send it
off and the
server handles the rest.

Also like Stefan said, the look and feel of it is important, but Scamper is
not the most advanced
web browser and it should be a site that works with Scamper. One have to
find a balance
between the form and the content that fills the need at the moment. Also
the html can be
enhanced once Scamper gets more advanced.
