Hello Matthew,
this sounds great and I think it would be very useful if you could
document all of this in the wiki as well so that people not on the
mailing list can discover about it as well.
Personally, I'm a bit worried about this, though:

So if I push some malicious script, it will be merged into the 'repo'
automatically. OK, you could argue that people should check the code
before using the script, fair enough. How is versioning handled,
though. I.e. what if I (being an evil attacker) push a file with the
same name you're using for your popular script? Will it then be
overwritten and distributed to all the happy users of your script?
