I think the association could step in here and maybe bring in some money 
for that to get it running again, as it's some kind of 'quality 
insurance' for TYPO3 in my eyes. The extensions are part of the official 
TYPO3 repository and thus a part of the TYPO3 project.

But besides of that I'd vote for a 'official' extension repository - a 
repository where there is only 1 extension for the most common purposes 
and not 20 doing almost the same (like galleries, guestbooks, 
calendars,...) and where all extensions instantly work together.
I think the ECT would be very well suited for that as it exactly tries 
to achieve this - but a little more 'official' support would be nice.

Just my 2 cent.
