The thing is, it really has to be something more (collaborative) like...

http://customize.tiddlyspace.com

...that is, above all, community driven ...regardless of how much of that 
material I once personally up there.

As for finding new versions, I think that the plugins on the main site only

I think all plugins should have a source, origin, or repo field that points 
to the place where an update can be found and, ideally, the core should be 
able to check for any updates at that very location.

For other plugins I don't know what you could use, it would have to be

Again, the core should provide the machanism and the plugin-authors should 
make use of it. There could be some kind of proxy-update-server-mechanism 
on TiddlyWiki.com with officially listed plugins, however not officially 
hosted ones... hence the server-side-proxy fetching it for the user.

I think that's not a one-person-job... unless we're talking about the 
official upgrader on TiddlyWiki.com... which, however, you still need to 
manually visit, I believe.

Best wishes, Tobias.
