As suggested by a fellow ASFer, I am going to play this a bit hard and fast, as not a lot of people really care that much about the old site in its current state. A replacement site for modules.apache.org is in the works (it's actually nearly completed already, you can see it at http://modules.humbedooh.com/ - do try it out), and as such, I'd like to propose we make the switch from the old site to the new, and start afresh with the database, as it's very lacking in its current state. Once this is done, anyone with an interest in further developing the site is most welcome to contact me, and we'll start hashing out what remains to be done (I can always think of new things to add, such as Nick's suggestion about DOAP files, possibly supporting multiple Apache projects etc). This will be done by lazy consensus; If I hear no complaints within the next 72 hours, I will consider the subject agreed upon and start upgrading the site to the new system. So, if you do have objections, I suggest you let them be heard :) But please do try out the new system before you make up your mind - it's got lots of improvements, both for visitors and module authors. With regards, Daniel.
