I'm glad we're thinking along the same lines. :)

If I may, I would insist on using GitHub because the social aspects of
collaboration (forks, pull requests, comments, and issues) are very
well integrated.  In addition, lots of ZSH community development
already occurs there (zsh-syntax-highlighting plugin, oh-my-zsh, and
so on).

In this manner, I request that you create the
zsh-history-substring-search repository under your GitHub account to
set things in motion.  I and others in the community can fork your
repository and send pull requests when we have something worthy to
contribute.

Good choice.

The credit for that name should go to Peter Stephenson, who came up
with it back in 2009:

Cheers.
