The plugin manager is a very very big thing for me, I want to get it right.
Now, as I've mentioned before, the idea is that daily it's going to call into the different plugin servers listed and see if there are any updates to any of the plugins you have. (Yes, you can turn this off! But it makes sense to make it on by default, as it were.)
The other thing you'll be able to do is provide a username/password for private sites so that you'll be able to be notified automatically of updates - even on private mod sites.
Here's a demo of the screen as it stands right now - you'll notice the old 'download from a URL' option is gone, and that there's a revised upload and download area (with adding a repo / package server being on a new page)
On this particular case, I've set it to fake being 'error' (so that if it couldn't call a given site, it flags it as in error and won't call on it again until you reset it, to avoid repeatedly trying to hammer broken links etc), and I've manually put in a user name into the system so it displays the fact that there's a user account attached to that server.
(I also happen to think it's more consistently styled compared to the rest of the admin panel, but that's just my biased view :P)

I like what you have done here especially with the private sites that is very handy feature to have :cool:

Fortunately most of the UI stuff is done there, most of what's left to do is the making-it-work bit that I've spent today swearing at.
