1) I don't know; what was it for? There is #moddev.
2) There are either people developing a widget who make a forum thread for it, or games maintaining their own widgets internally.

1. koshi still has database backup of it afaik but doesn't want the hassle of reinstalling the software. Would be great if it could temporarily be revived by someone to give us an opportunity to transfer the knowledge to wiki

I removed the old links as based on the comments they are not available and, if anybody wants to make something similar, adding a link is very easy.

Edit: in fact for widget database I found a working link at http://widgets.springrts.de/, so I just replaced the old one.
