It seems it has been awhile that this idea has sat in the barn, now lets make the push to get it going for Drupal 7!
Has any development been done yet? I envision something similar to the Debian/Ubuntu package manager where you can simply search through a repositories page and put a check next to the package(s) you want to install. Then hit install and it will take care of any dependencies you need as well.
Another cool feature would be updates. It would be able to provide a list of modules which have a new version out and everything can be upgraded at the click of a button.
Lets make this happen!
