One thing that has been suggested before is that each package gets a wiki 
page, or some other sort of page, that has in formation regarding who 
maintains it, where is the upstream, Summary/Description all that, and also 
it could have information about how to use/test that package.

I certainly think much of this info should be automatically generated out of 
the package database, and some of it user contributed.  How to get there, I 
have no idea.
