It doesn't seem like you would need SMW, though I'm sure that using SMW would make using your work on distribution easier. I'm thinking of creating a distribution system based ideas like PHP's PEAR, Perl's CPAN, Ruby's Gems, or Python's PyPI. These tools are ecosystems that encourage sharing reusable work. I haven't looked at the new Gadgets work yet (though I did know about it), but maybe we could build upon it to include more than just Javascript. There is a huge MediaWiki userbase out there (as I've seen from looking at wikistats with Daniel Zahn). We need to start find better ways to work together. We all use MediaWiki, but MW enables building new tools through Javascript, Templates, and (soon?) Lua. There isn't a really good way to share and re-use that work yet. -- http://hexmode.com/ Human evil is not a problem. It is a mystery.
