Good news for Wordpress Plugin developers.
Wordpress has finally announced the launch of the official wordpress plugin directory. A central place to find and download wordpress plugins.

Users can now browse, download, rate, and comment on their favorite plugins.

Benefits for plugin developers:

• Best plugins featured on main page.
• Exposure to the millions of people who visit WordPress.org every month.
• Free SVN hosting for GPL plugin development at wp-plugins.org. (Like always.)
• Automatic download packages and free hosting of those.
• Statistics about how many people are using and downloading your plugins.
• Prominent links to your homepage, and the ability to specify a Paypal donation link from your plugin page.

Visit this webpage to add your plugin to the plugin directory. Your plugin must be GPL compatible.
