Hello,
Don't think it exists yet, but does anyone know if there is an online community-website-tool for sharing, voting/reviewing and downloading user-contributed Features? [as apposed to fully-approved and maintained Projects]
I know people submit modules, and I know people submit code to places like Git-Hub. But a module is inherently a very different mind-set than a Feature [even if the code it makes might be the same].
Nearly 90% of what we make [if not more] has been done before, and its interesting/useful to see how others have done the same thing.
A shared-Feature would be just: "this is what I did, take it or leave it, maybe its useful to you". Whereas a Module is an implementation of something, usually with an admin-menu page, a maintainer, issue queue etc.
Granted, There are also sandboxes:
http://drupal.org/node/1011196
But I can't see how to browse sandboxes that others have made, review them, rate them, see how popular they are etc.
Plus the fact that it is called "experimental" implies half finished, or not done, and thus "broken" when really someone might have done a great set of Views, and Content Types together which is inherently "done" as a basis and others can build from it...
Am I just missing a link to an existing resource? Or does this sort of thing just not exist (yet)?
Thanks for all your time and thoughts on the mater,
Sebastian.

mig5 started http://community.featureservers.org/ awhile back. I don't know current status or usage though.
