Summary: for it!

I am in favor of something along the lines of a project clearinghouse. I think
that it should be moderated, though. For an experienced net user cum moderator,
directing more novice traffic directly to already established projects or
finished software would make the newsgroup a more worthy subscription, such
as mod.sources vs. net.sources. I am not an experienced net user nor moderator
(barely familiar with Unix*) so I don't intend to volunteer myself except in
the unlikely case that formation of the newsgroup fails for lack of a moderator.
I hope everyone with any interest in the group will show support now to get 
this off the ground.
