I want users to be able to tag scripts.

Tagging: No idea how this would
work. Somehow using either disqus or github users could add tags to plugins,
then popular tags could be used as categories.

Me too! For now we'd probably store the tags as a JSON file in the site files.

I don't know how users would enter them... It's got to be some sort of control on the script's home page, but I'm not sure where it would POST to.

Maybe have a disqus tag thread for each plugin, separate from the comment threads... You put tags in comments, then the scraper would pull them out and store them in the JSON file. Seems simple and reasonably usable for now....?
