Phill, Thanks for the suggestion. At this weekends jQuery Conference it was announced that the plugin repository was a top priority in terms of getting redone.
Some features the new site will have is: - Site will be simplistic in terms that it'll be a search engine and index plugins that are submitted. - Authors will update thier plugins from their site providing information that users need like version information We are targeting this site to be launched by the end of the year. It is the jQuery teams highest priority. I think this new site will take care of the concerns you are addressing.
