Maintain lists of pre-defined keywords that project authors can use to describe their projects. Let project authors add or submit new keywords. Then raa.succ can respond to queries like "list all database projects" or "list all gui builder projects". 2) Dependencies. Let a project author define which other projects (and version numbers) are required for their project. 3) When retrieving a project, automagically grab all other projects that the project depends on. That's it for one sitting. Thanks for collecting these suggestions.
