What if we had a master feed file on geeklog.net that defined the URL's 
for registered plugin depot's - or it's just a default GL ships with. We 
can then have a block that returns a listing of updates from these 
registered  depots. Sites should be able to add/remove URL's from this 
feed so they are not restricted.

Users can click on a depot link which redirects them to that site where 
they get a detailed listing of all updates -- like an RSS Feed does. 
Maybe we have an area on the Plugin Editor page that also shows 
available updates or new plugins.

This spec should be extended to also support blocks so that we can 
browse and install blocks on our sites from depot's.
