Peter Shaw The plugin repository is fine with one major issue The major issue is that the search and sorting algorithm is skewed so strongly to popular existing plugins that it is very difficult to gain the initial popularity required. It is so broken that even when you search for a plugin by name, if the plugin you are after is not popular it might not even appear on the front page. There are some truly terrible popular plugins. I know this as I’ve forked them.
