I think a great idea for the Arch site would be to have a centralized login system (so users only need 1 login/password) either using LDAP or a MySQL user DB that's used by all sections (wiki, AUR, bugtracker and forums). This would make the DB's a bit smaller since each user wouldn't need 4 logins and it would make things a lot sexier and easier for users.

Personally, i believe that the Arch site is damn near perfect and having the centralized login would just be the thing that makes the site the best distro site :)
This task depends upon

Unfortunately, I fail at PHP, i fail a bit at SQL and...I'm decent with LDAP, but only LDAP+PAM :(
