[Qgis-developer] Plugin management

Hi all.
I am adding my notes on the plugins to be approved directly on the
django interface, using the About field. I encourage others to do the
same. Comments have to be removed before publication.
It would be useful to have a list of items to be checked for approval.
Here a few items:
* no .pyc files (correct?)
* virus scan (how to do it? could this be automatic on the server side?)
* if special data are needed to test the functioning, a small sample
should be added
* the plugin should go to the appropriate menu (Vector, Raster, Web,
Database).
I'm also checking for:
* the presence of bugtracker and code repo
* correctness of links
* installation and basic functioning.
Anyone wants to add?
The good news is that we now have only 9 unapproved plugins:
* 5 are being worked on
* for 2, authors are not responding
* 1 has issues with licence
* 1 is considered unsuitable by the author.
All the best.
