"Beauty"? I don't think we want to rely on non-project-controlled
servers for anything that's part of our core infrastructure. If/when
js-kit.com goes belly-up, what happens to that data? Also, what kind of
privacy guarantees have we got? (Admittedly, privacy may be moot for
information that was originally entered on a public web page, but the
whole idea of someone else controlling our data just makes me itch.)

I can go along with this as a jury-rig setup for our first commit fest,
but it just seems like another powerful argument for moving to something
wiki-based as soon as we can get that sorted.
