I'd like to setup the homepage on whimsy.a.o to get semi-automatically
built, so that when new tools are deployed for use, they get displayed
on the homepage.  Note: this is opt-in, and probably semi-automatic, so
we don't have the homepage breaking without a developer noticing first.

My possibly naive concept is to annotate each script that we would link
to with a # comment on the second line of the script:

# Wvisible:Category This is the link description

Then have a tool script that crawls the www/ tree, and outputs a copy of
the homepage with auto-generated links put into Category sections,
similar to the current layout.

Thoughts?  Better ways to annotate?

We are at the point that while we do have many different individual
tools, we also have a lot of useful tools that many different people
might be interested.  Better publicizing them can help some Apache
communities.
