I think this is the only link in the OFBiz applications that points to

Before we kick off an official vote, any thoughts from anyone?
I think the word "dangerous" is slightly inflammatory.
In what way? Could you be more specific?
However, at the
end of the day do we really want to have advertisements all over the
project for add on open source modules?
I don't for one.
What we need is a well organized, highly visible place for things that
attach to the project that live in the hot-deploy directory. We should
be encouraging an ecosystem of plugable add-ins be they true-open,
viral-open, or closed-commercial variety.
For projects/products based on OFBiz:
http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBIZ/Apache+OFBiz+User+List
For companies offering services/etc based on OFBiz:
http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBIZ/Apache+OFBiz+Service+Providers
Both of these are linked to directly from the ofbiz.apache.org home page.
This is certainly something that can be improved.
What did you have in mind that is different from this?
