Well, shouldn't people rather put their codes into SVN?
Yes, but the code in SVN isn't live. There is still no way to change an existing tool (either to improve it or because the author left) except by taking its code and creating a same new tool somewhere else.
As a practical example, I'd like to be able to fix http://tools.wikimedia.de/~interiot/cgi-bin/queries/grep but it seems that I will have to make my own tool for the purpose.

We've been thinking of MediaWiki as the toolserver homepage (http://tools.wikimedia.de) months ago with rob or greg iirc, and we've come to the conclusion that we'd better want a static page (as the current one), due to aspects like meta having a better availibilty and such. I can't see what a MediaWiki could do other than being a homepage?
I propose we start building a code wiki, which would be just like wiki, but for code :) This would also solve the problem of people leaving their needed tools unupdated.
