apt-get in a webbrowser

[Jaap Haitsma]

Hi,

When installing new apps I find myself searching on packages.debian.org 
and then look at changelogs descriptions and maybe go to the site where 
the development to read something about the app and then finally do an 
apt-install or I run synaptic.

I think it would be fantastic if the whole thing including installation 
would be completely web based. I.e you install the packages by clicking 
on a link on the webpage.

Advantages are:
* Just one simple interface taking care of the searching / browsing / 
selection and installing

* It is extremely user friendly

* Maintainer can very easily update information/documentation

It's a bit like running apt inside your browser.

Are people working on this?

Jaap

PS Don't get me wrong, Debian has the best package management system 
I've seen so far, but things can always be improved
