I think this is a good idea; I unfortunately don't have access to a dedicated website to host my scripts as of yet, and so I must resort to uploading the scripts to a public-readable ftp server that gets purged weekly (it's only meant for temporary storage, otherwise, everyone leaves their junk up on there and it eventually fills up), so it would be great to have the scripts hosted somewhere more permanent.
