[Qgis-developer] Plugin migratin -> mailing list?

[geodrinx at gmail.com]

Hello Raymond,

> Now, because of large changes in our system that will affect all plugins, the QGIS team wants to send some messages to all plugin developers. This could be done by hand (adding up all addresses as BCC in an email program) but it would take up a lot of time.

Instead of sending bulk eMails, taken from plugin Db ( that the current rule forbids ) you can have two possible strategies:

1) to ask again to all plugin developers sign a new mail-list, where is explicitely indicate the scope of 

2) simply, to insert in the qgis.org web site a clear alert to plugin developers what they need to do to update their work

It'all.
