I think it's a great idea. I'd also be interested in seeing any
small programs/snippets that people write to test out PyQt or PyKDE
classes - I'd be happy to include PyKDE related stuff (like
example/demo stuff) in the PyKDE distribution.

The only other thing I'd suggest is either some review of scripts
to try and make sure they're not mailicious, or else a
notice/disclaimer (added to the download?) that advises people to
do that.

I'm only an "honorary" admin on the sf/pykde site - if the programs
to be posted are small, it might be easier to mail them (tar.gz or
zip) to the actual maintainers rather than trying to co-ordinate an
sf upload.
