This lead me to think that we don't have a kind of SourceForge model.
Having a space devoted to building apps with source available could
be userful. I'm thinking of something very simple, a WEBDAV
repositery or just using webEdit.

For example, I think that a SuperStress app should be modular, so we
could easily add plug-in scripts that test for example characters
encoding on OS X or Windows.

What I think is an app that work with callbacks that are called
depending on the platform for example or if the app is running in
Frontier or Radio...
