How about a "Hacker New App Status Tracker" app? Something where HN hackers can post a list of the apps they're working on, basic details, start date, expected completion date, etc. Make it searchable by username, programming language, category, etc. Have a "hall of fame" for users who complete lots of stuff, and a "hall of shame" for, well... you know.
I don't mean a project management tool, or anything that has a lot (if any) of formal value. More like something for people here to use to A. stroke their ego, B. show off to their peers, and C. (most importantly) get encouragement from their peers. Maybe have something like Facebook's "poke" button where you can poke somebody who's behind on delivering their app. :-)
1. For me "Apps" doesn't means just iPhone/Android apps.
Right now, my skillset allows me to create only webapps :-), though I am thinking of using this "App a month" as an opportunity to learn to do mobile apps.
Thanks for answering my questions. I'm not sure why I assume the apps you were going to make were mobile apps. I guess that's just what has been in my head recently =)

Anyway... just an idea.
