It would be nice to have browseable docs for each project on  
RubyForge.  The gems are there; so it'd be a matter of generating the  
rdoc in a safe way.

Didn't someone write a rather nice AJAXy gem browser/searcher web app  
a while back?    I can't recall enough about it to Google it up... but  
it'd be a start, especially if it were hooked into a tab for each  
RubyForge project.
