I think I failed in my initial message to present the problem statement. Let me provide that now:
> There is no way for contributors who are not svn-savvy to reliably commit > things themselves to the extras repo. Thinking about what the svn-ignorant can do, most can create zip archives of their work. Particularly, I'm thinking of theme authors, who are typically inexperienced with source code control, but can dump a zip on their own sites in no time. Sending a zip file anywhere for someone else to commit is not a solution to the problem statement, which requires that they be able to do it themselves. You can already send zip files places and request someone do it for you - that's not a problem, and the solution I proposed doesn't address that. This also isn't primarily about creating a plugin and theme directory, which is already in-progress and available (to some extent) via http://habariproject.org/en/explore/plugins This is about making it easier for contributors to get their contributions into the extras repo, should they choose to do so, and then later bridging this system to an extant directory.
