Yes, please NOT a library. Those always have the problem of being 
either too small (not enough functionality, though not really 
compatible with other libraries) or way too big (MiscKit, Omni 
Frameworks with many dependencies).

Single classes and categories would be very nice. A Wiki could be a 
good way to document and index them. There would be no urgent need for 
a "public" cvs, since you can simply download the two files from the 
web (or copy-paste from the wiki pages).  cvs would of cause be needed 
for maintainers.

Greetings,
