As a recent new user, (and now a custom plugin writer), I did not
remember that there was a plugin page. I look for plugins in the
plugin manager as that is what come to mind first before I start
googling.<br>
<br>
I also lurk here for valuable info. :)<br>

<br>
I wonder what is the criterion to mark a plugin as featured.
There is
<br>
even one featured plugin which is now deprecated.
<br>
Perhaps we should have clear criteria for inclusion, and keep
the list
<br>
updated?
<br>
All the best.

With new users in mind, I wonder if the plugins page is really the
resource for picking a plugin, or if they just search through the
plugin manager for things they might need, cause it does provide
the exact same informations as the website (minus those tags).
<br>
<br>
More important for me would be the question, which plugins are
installed and enabled by default. And I ask the question again (I
never got an answer on that before): Why e.g. is the Table Manager
not installed and available by default? As ESRI shape is the major
output format, a novice starting to use QGIS has no tool to alter
the attribute table, which is IMHO an unnecessary obstacle.
<br>
I bet there are not few people fumbling around in the dbf before
realizing that there is a plugin available.
<br>
<br>
Just my two cents
