I agree on those, maybe the greatest thing to get on would be to provide that svn+trac that some people was interested in, and to put the snippets inside. And setup something like a "django portal" with not only information about what is inside the repositories but also projects, applications and so that are outside the site. That way newcomers and users have a unique place to find everything they want. And those who don't know/want to setup SVN and TRAC can getit for their django projects.
And surely we can skip the mailling list part as I don't thing there would be too much volume that could not be help by that group or another. Mabe *-commit lists if somebody wants it. So "A central location for all django contributed work, and a place to host your project" ;) Cheers, Marc.
