I'm not sure yet whether the current Software Catalog style or wiki is better, but can't we get both benefits?

* Take the wiki style, which allows everyone to edit.
* Place the link to the wiki page on the main web site. (The current location of the Software Catalog is not easy to find.)
* To make the software entries look consistent, specify the entry format in the editing guideline page.
