If you're downloading open source software on Windows, friendly reminder to get it via Chocolatey rather than ever clicking on a download button. Chocolatey has reviewed, silent, direct, crapware free downloads of just about anything you'd want.
I can't wait for the new package manager in Windows 10, though.
From what I understand, it's more of a "package manager-manager" so it manages other systems (like Chocolatey) rather than running the repos itself.
In the meantime, I'd drop $5 on Hitman Go: http://apps.microsoft.com/windows/en-us/app/hitman-go/5fa3bb...
I tried to make a package for a simple binary last year (I believe it was premake4 or something). It was annoying to use, and other software I installed with it didn't have an uninstall option.
Package managers make me happy (love Homebrew on OSX), but I don't see a point if I can't also uninstall. I rarely install things from sources that need vetting.
Pretty similar to npm.
and a donate button at the bottom of the front page. I wonder how much money that can generate though.
