All the scripts on vim.org: http://www.vim.org/scripts/script_search_results.php

Sounds good to me!  Tim Pope (Pathogen's author) would probably
be a good person to talk to.

Nah, it just watches the RSS feed and downloads new versions
once when they appear.  I doubt the vim.org admins can even
see the extra load.

I played around with something like this in vim-update-bundles:
    http://github.com/bronson/vim-update-bundles

A more interesting but brand new idea is here, 100% vimscript:
    http://github.com/gmarik/vundle

Some reddit discussion I just ran across today:
    
http://www.reddit.com/r/vim/comments/ds0ju/awesome_project_all_the_scripts_get_easily/

Those are just the ones I know of offhand, I've heard of other
solutions too (as you say, vim-addon-manager, and there's
a script to install vim plugins as ruby gems).

Love all the new ideas.  Can't wait to see which ones stick.
