I think this is a wonderful idea and if you would like to put it on
www.gtk.org I think that would be wonderful as well.  If you decide
to put it on a different machine I can give you a gtk.org alias
(apps.gtk.org?) if you have the ability to configure that web server
properly.

I'd like the ability to register as the software maintainer and then
be able to control news and status attributes of your software.  Perhaps
even semi-automate the front page news of www.gtk.org.  (there would have
to be an approval section of the software then...)

Do up a working demo and lets work out the details then.
