Where can I find user created camera and lens profiles for Lightroom 3 and Camera Raw 6.1?

Question

The new Lightroom 3 and Adobe Camera Raw 6.1 have a lens and body database included to automatically correct your image.

For a small description of this new features:

Quickly and easily perfect your images by automatically reducing lens defects like geometric distortion, chromatic aberration, and vignetting with single-click profiles. Even images from the best lenses will be improved.

But the problem is, for Nikon and Canon, only a limited set of lenses and bodies are included, Adobe has released a program to create your own lens profiles but I haven't been able to find a community which posts their profiles. I image a nice database for this could be created to share these profiles with others.

So is there a community which shares these profiles or does everyone keep the profiles private?

To clarify, yes I know that in Photoshop you can search for other submitted profiles, but it seems to lack quality control and cannot be used in Lightroom.

Answer

After asking this question and searching some more I found a Adobe employee confirming they were creating a site for this purpose. See: [suggestion] shared profiles server.
