I'm all for that, get access to projects people are the most likely to look for. Would it make sense to count accesses to index pages of each project and then sort by that? Or sort by some activity index?

Actually, no reason to restrict tagging to project owners. This might be interesting, but again the question is, does anyone really want to browse the project list based on "show me all kernel-related projects" or "show me all xorg-related projects", especially as we have forks and it may not be reliable?
