Wiki page with all Arch-related third party projects?

I was thinking that it would be cool to have a wiki page with a list of all the Arch-related projects. I could not find any by searching for "third party", and I'm not sure it exists.
However, I'm seeing projects popping out very often, and it's definitely useful to have a reference page, perhaps asking the authors to provide links and information.

What do you think?

Re: Wiki page with all Arch-related third party projects?

http://www.archlinux.org/projects/ here's a really (old?) small list.  i'm sure this could probably be updated.  I'd like to see something like this as well.  A wiki page would probably be best so we don't end up bugging the devs with a simple web page update.  Maybe something titled Community Projects?

Yeah, that's perfect, I hadn't seen it before. I think what is left now is to make some sort of announcement.
Thanks for finding out smile

Didn't Phrakture make some sort announcement about that page when he created it?  Well, either that or I am making up memories again....

Re: Wiki page with all Arch-related third party projects?

If you refer to the wiki page, that's been created by cactus on the 5th of May (2008), apparently.
If you refer to the projects page, I can't answer you, since I wasn't part of this community yet.

Re: Wiki page with all Arch-related third party projects?

Yeah, I meant the wiki page, and it was Cactus who made the announcement (http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=46596). That was a whole month ago, so I can't be expected to remember details about who it was exactly...  big_smile

Ah, thanks for that. Since it's sticky, do you think it would make a difference if I would bump it?

Maybe... it will put it on the new posts lists which is all I browse.  I don't know if it will increase its prominence to most others though.

Yeah, that's what I thought. Well, I've bumped it.
