Description

Hi all,

First of all thanks a lot for this great mediacenter app.
Having such a versatile app in PS3 is great.

One of the features that I find most interesting is plugin support and how easy it is to add a newly plugin.
Nevertheless, showtime does not seem to have as many plugins as would be expected.

Maybe it is just me, but the fact that plugins publication cannot be decentralized is forcing too many people away from it.
My suggestion is to actually allow the inclusion of as many repositories as the user wishes, the external repositories would decentralize plugin development.
Apart from allowing to include other repositories, the main repository could be a source for other repositories.
Trusted repositories would be added there.

I guess this solution would scale better considering the non needed interaction from Andreas when a user wants to update a script.

Thanks a lot
