interesting premise.. unfortunately its a safe assumption that plugin writers dont go back and update their versions on wp-plugins.net (I might be wrong though). I can say with all honestly, that I dont.
Given that, it might be semi-useful, atleast for those plugins that ppl do take the time to update over there. I tend to only announce changes here, since logging in to so many sites just to announce a small change is tedious and a drag.

Fair point, although personally I’ve always kept wp-plugins up to date in preference to posting on these forums. One very good reason for doing that is that plugin data from the site is heavily syndicated. It’s also used as a basis for a few plugin-review sites that I’ve seen.
I’m pulling these numbers out of my behind, but generally speaking posting / updating a plugin on wp-plugins.net results in an increase of >100 visitors & downloads.
Unfortunately the wp-plugins site itself doesn’t seem to be very actively maintained. I’d rather there was some DB connected more intimately with ww.wp.xz.cn itself but until that happens I’ll make do with what there is!

Updated v1.2 Now Available
After a quick bug fix to sort some initial issues picked up by people, version 1.1 is now available for download. In hindsight being “Very Beta” it doesn’t make sense to start at 1.0, but it was late & there’s not a lot I can do about that now. Version 2.0 will be the one to watch. Probably.
Download v1.2 Here
