I'd love to know how many copies of different GPL projects are out in the wild. This could help increase visibility and give users an easier time finding the source code. Many companies that ship GPL code have archives like this available on their own websites. But GitHub isn't really that great at showing you the "forks graph" anyway. Recently it has become very trendy to host all code in one centralized location like GitHub. Maybe it could even show how they've diverged, although that might not be so easy. The general idea is to have a site that can track various projects that release their own copy of GPL (especially, but other licenses as well) software. This might not have as much clarity as I'd like. I have been drafting an 'Ideas' post about the following idea, but it's not done yet and this looks like as good a place as any to look for some early feedback.
