I like this idea - but more usefull would be a simple InstallShield ( or
whatever ) installer for windows ( the RPMs on linux are magic, soon I
might forget how to install :-), maybe for other platforms ( since most
installers can now generate cross platform things ).

And few additions to the /admin application - like making it look decent
and useable ( we already have a lot of functionality and it's simple to 
add new admin pages - but it needs someone to take "ownership" and
coordinate the effort ).
