When I think of IMDB, I think about using it to get granular information about a movie, not to discover new movies. I use it for finding out who were the cast and crew (and what else did they work on), how much was the box office, when was it released. I assume that's not what you mean though. You wouldn't, for example, list the credits for each open source project, i.e. who were the engineers, who were the QA testers? Or maybe you would! But that seems like it'd be a ton of work, and supporting the changing roster over different versions seems like it'd be a scope nightmare. (I have always wanted this website to exist, though. I just think it's impossible without a software industry equivalent of the screen actors guild, or MPAA, or whichever entity it is that mandates rules about who gets credit for a film) Instead, do you mean more like a big searchable list of open source projects? If so, I'd still want to know what kind of information you plan on collecting about each project, to know whether I would use it or not.
