I really like this initiative (and I know it has been done before).

An implementation idea, hopefully it's a simplification to the process: 
I think it would work well if there was a table / storage space where 
all these cables and plugs are, and everyone who goes there would have 
the right to swap *one thing* at a time, ie. put a plug down and pick up 
another.

Yes someone would have to seed it but that's not difficult either.
