Yes, but the challenging bit is to get the scientific community
recognize the service is central point of entry.

Therefore, I think something under academic control will have more
impact. Though I quick like Ohloh (*), I hosts much more than
scientific software, and will therefore not have the impact we should
look for. Actually, I was more thinking of something like
BioCatalogue, but then not for SOAP, REST (is there XMPP support yet?
not that I get to writing a patch myself), but for scientific software
instead.

I'm sure we can mostly reuse existing ontologies (DOAP, FOAF, and CITO
for the references. With the end of my current post-doc nearing, and
no next adventure yet, I am not in the position right now to host a
web frontend around such...
