After reading all your replies, I think that's what we can expect from the
Symfony plugins and management.

-managing plugins
  - rating
     - overall, coding style (design patterns, code structure, unit testing,
schema etc.)
  - documentation
       - phpDoc
       - tutorials
       - screenshots
       - step by step guides
  - comments
  - DEMO and hosting of demo on the same website
  - easy packaging
      - dependency management (if other plugins are needed, they are
download automatically)
      - version management

-managing user contributions
  - approval by a group of developers
  - users must explicitly say what they modified
  - Forums, tickets (bug reporting) and TASKS MANAGEMENT, TODO By plugin


-Plugins and SVN
 - accessing the code on SVN directly
 - usage of SVN:external when other plugins are needed


If I forgot something, do not hesitate to write it down.
Thanks
