Gists can be made public and people can leave comments to contribute or otherwise. I don't know of anything more convenient with these features. There is even http://gist.new/ as a shortcut domain.
Some examples:
https://gist.github.com/SMUsamaShah/fd6e275e44009b72f64d0570256bb3b2 P2P file sharing tools
https://gist.github.com/SMUsamaShah/71d5ac6849cdc0bffff4c19329e9d0bb JavaScript immediate GUI libs
https://gist.github.com/SMUsamaShah/6379649c0cbade9abc02b2427bd33210 All In-browser VMs
https://gist.github.com/SMUsamaShah/301994b39334ac2515224b92afb72403 All Hirens BootCD Versions
Can see all my public "List of X" gists here https://gist.github.com/search?o=desc&q=user%3Asmusamashah+%22list+of%22&s=stars

TIL, I will definitely start using that domain.
