I don't know: it just smacks of centralisation and giving an official
stamp of approval to things.  I'm with plucker because I can do
whatever I want with it, not just what a certain large corporation
says that I can.  

I do recognise the power in having a listings service on the
distribution site, though.  At the very least, it should not be
distributed with the software because it will change more often than
the software (I hope), and it should be possible to pull listings
files from multiple sources (not just plkr.org).
