What if there was an option to upload a package *to* RAA, instead of
using rpkg to download from RAA?  For example:

[~]# rpkg --upload-raa narf.package
Extracting information from package...
  Project Name: Narf
      Version: alpha
       Status: alpha
        Owner: Patrick May
Owner's Email: patrick-may@monmouth.com
     Category: Lib/WWW
     Homepage: http://narf-lib.sourceforge.net
     Download: http://sourceforge.net/projects/narf-lib
  Description: NARF is an attempt to create ruby web libraries
               that escape the weighty thud that one usually
               associates with web frameworks. We want to build a
               variety of solutions to help with every layer of
               building web applications, from the ground (cgi) up
               (to design patterns)

Please enter RAA pass phrase: *********
Updating information...
                       ...Done
[~]#

Would it be difficult to add this meta data to rpkg?  I'm sure much of
it is there in some form or another.  Of course, this work should be
done by those who actually want the feature :-)

Since RAA (or Google, but that's a different story) is the main
destination for one browsing for packages, I think it is important for
a package system to make it easy to update that information.  This
kind of feature could make it easier to 'ease' into a different
packaging system.

~ Patrick
