I also have a "late response".

There is a project called WPKG - http://wpkg.sourceforge.net - which 
also serves this purpose. It was already mentioned it this topic.

As the web page for this project looked rather terrible and didn't tell 
much what WPKG does, I decided to help them and make them a (hopefully) 
better page - it now consists of some basic (corrected) documentation, 
mailing list (there was none previously), etc. all necessary stuff (if I 
forgot abut something, let me know).

There is a http backend planned for WPKG, too.
