I'll prototype something when I get some time. It'd be a fairly straightforward app, forms to submit themes. Then probably just an admin view where you can take submitted themes and convert them into active ones (which would then accept patches and allow people to download these and comment on them. I'm not convinced about this app being integrated with the forum. Otherwise there'd probably be no advantage over just taking submissions by email and dropping them on the forum. I could also get this to send an e-mail to the pd-list when a theme is activated (I don't know if there'd be any problems with automated e-mails to the list?) As I say, stick with the forum for now. I'll post a prototype once I've managed to put something together. Then you can decide if it's worth developing further. Andrew

Yeah I would be fine acting as a moderator (for the forum). Andy Farraday mentioned writing an app that would take theme submissions... I don't know how easily this could be integrated into the forum but we'll discuss that more. It appears "Maelstrom" is the main moderator of the forums, so I'll contact him and see about getting it setup.

ok, will we set up a section of the forum for this?
Tyler, as this was your suggestion, would you be able to manage/run it?
