One of the things I think would help would be a list just like Thierry's
but with a couple of differences. Like versiontracker, it would list every
single peice of software, including works on progress. It would list their
fee/free/OSS status, version numebr, details etc. Much like Thierry's
site, but moreso!

It would also include a separate developer directory that would include
names and contact details of developers, what projects they [are|have]
work[ing|ed] on in which languages.

There should also be a developer support forum just like the ql-developers
list, but moreso!

Basically, most of these resources mostly exist already. It's just a
matter of getting everyone to update and maintain the details about
themselves in a central location. Don't make Thierry ask you. If you're
working on something, or release an update, let him know so he can keep
his site current.
