Oh, and one more thing. I think this is the killer feature:

"To register and publish your plugin, you’ll need to push your code to a public repository on GitHub, and add our post-recieve webhook URL (http://plugins.jquery.com/postreceive-hook) to your repository. The next time you push a semver tag, we’ll take care of registering the plugin name and updating its page on the site. When you’re ready to release the next version of your plugin, just tag and push again!"

Replace jQuery w/ Forge and we have the same goal.

I know that Forge has a plugin repository, but there's always room for new ideas.

The jQuery foundation recently rebooted their plugin registry to drive all contributions to it out of git. I thought you might be interested in reviewing how they set it up and see if any ideas might apply to Forge plugin registry, both in terms of how a plugin is registered and plugin discovery.
