[Matrix-SIG] contributed archive for NumPy extensions?

Can we establish an easily located central archive or index for NumPy 
extensions? (Or if it exists, can we publicize it better?)

I would like a very simple mechanism for an extension author  to 
'publish' information about an extension such that a potential user can
easily find the extensions.

For example, I found some nice NumPy modules by 'Janko Hauser', but only by a 
careful search of the 'starship' crew pages.
http://starship.skyport.net/crew/jhauser/numpyadds.html


I'd like to a link from the 
http://www.python.org/download/Contributed.html#Math
http://www.python.org/sigs/matrix-sig/    and
http://www.python.org/topics/scicomp/numbercrunching.html

pages to an FTP site, or 
perhaps a page maintained by a FAQ Wizard or the BSCW system on

http://starship.skyport.net/

I'd be happy to help, if someone would give me the necessary permissions on 
python.org or starship .

Let me know what you think about such an index.
