There have been quite a few posts, here and in other forums, which concern new ideas for plugins that don't exist (yet).
I'll be creating a new MediaWiki page called Need A Plugin. It will be editable by section (use the '+' tab at the top). There, each section will represent an idea for a new plugin. Sections can be edited to add replies, viewed for reference etc. And when a plugin has been born out of the process, the section will have to dsappear as it has done its job.
What do you think?

Personally I vote for ideaTorrent to be used for that purpose. When the 'categories' have been added to ideaTorrent (overlapping with the categories used in the wiki) then developers looking for something to do that has the most impact on the community could look at the Plugin category and see which has the most votes...

However, threr is a technical issue: the people who can promote ideas to "in development" or "implemented" are NP++ developers or admins of some kind, not plugin developers.
The wiki at least gives the possibility for anyone to report on idea implementation, and a benevolent admin can remove stuff which is completed and released.
