Place for people to bake software

I was thinking that if I were to write a program suggested on the halfbakery, the best place to post it would be here. I think there should be a section for posting the code for baked software, with some association with the original idea it came from.

       I don't mean to sound childish or geeked here, but like if I had a really cool idea for a computer program and told you all about it you could like make it happen and stuff?...'cuz that would be so kewl!

       If this site gave a new home to everything that grew out of its ideas, it would become a tiny copy of the world. We already have one of those, let's just use it. There are already people who write software. They're not that different from you and me, and we'd benefit from working with them.   

       For example, a good place for new software (if it's open source) is sourceforge.net, which will give you means to turn your software into a project, version-control it, and fix bugs with the help of a community process; a level of support the halfbakery is unlikely to mimic.   

       Similar forums exist in other areas, for example CPAN for perl modules, etc.

       I am serious [-----].

Certain posts (software related or not) could be highlighted in some manner if they have links to a site that shows a working model of the concept that has been developed by the initial poster or someone who got the idea from the post (and hopefully asked permission of the poster.).

Damn [jutta], you slid that one in on me:p
