One thing that would be cool would be to be able to receive notice (email or feed) on when new releases of an add-on is posted. For example when i download snippet X I could opt to receive notices when a new version of snippet X is released. This would make it easy to keep up to date.

Just a thought

As far as the new repo goes, we’ve made some headway and it’s now working for new Revo resources. Other than an infinitely more intuitive layout of essentially the same information, you now get to search the resources in their name and description fields. We also have two sets of "tags" for the categorization of downloadable elements/content/add-ons/etc. in our resource manager:

[*] Categories—Admin-only broad buckets for overall categorization.
[*] User Tags—Complete chaos like it is now, with unlimited and completely free form tagging ensuing.
