Hi all,
has there been a follow-up to this discussion?
I think I've missed it.

<pre class="moz-quote-pre" wrap="">Hi Admire,
thanks for sharing these info!
Looking at the list of the 51 unapproved plugins, I see something which
seems strange to me:
- there are some unapproved plugins for which it is reported a number of
downloads > 0 and also a number of "votes" > 0 although there is no
version available to be downloaded (e.g. "BigQuery Layers",
"FastVersion"): how is it possible?</pre>
</blockquote>
</blockquote>
I am not sure what caused this. I have a suscipion that it might
have been approved and then upon further investigation/testing then
the plugin was unapproved. The plugin apparently containts external
libs as reported in <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://github.com/smandaric/bigquerylayers/issues/12"
class="moz-txt-link-freetext">https://github.com/smandaric/bigquerylayers/issues/12</a>.
Maybe Paolo can shed more light on this.<br>

- there are some unapproved plugins having various version available to
be downloaded for which it is reported a great number of downloads and a
great number of "votes" and that are very recently updated (e.g.
"OpenQuake Integrated Risk Modelling Toolkit", "Lizmap" whihc is also
flagged as "Featured"): are they mistakenly listed among the unapproved
plugins?</pre>
</blockquote>
</blockquote>
<p>This is quite difficult to manage. Apparently a user can submit a
plugin for approval and before that version is approved they
upload another one for approval. You end up with multiple version
uploaded over a short period of time. When the approval happens
you approve the latest version and you now end up with other
versions which are not approved. It's up to the author to delete
the other unapproved version or keep it as it currently happens
leading to the confusion that the plugin is not approved.<br>

Hi QGIS Developers,
As many of you know, I developed 12 QGIS plugins. I will be retired by the
end of the month. NGA is supposed to take over maintenance of most of those
plugins, but at this point in time they don't have anyone who is really
qualified so I am not sure what will actually happen. If this does not
happen and someone finds a problem with any of them, let me know and I will
jump in and try to fix it, but I am going to let the process unfold to see
what happens.
If I can find a way to get paid for QGIS training or development then I am
interested in continuing to do some work, but I am also going to enjoy
retirement. Contact me if you need anything.

Thanks,
Calvin

Thank you for your contributions. Enjoy your retirement. I have been using
your search layers plugin for a long time.

Hello all,
Below is a summary of my work for the past week, along with plans for the
upcoming week, and a couple of requests for assistance.
New Pull Requests:
- SQL Results Window Clipboard
<a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Documentation/pull/9137"><https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Documentation/pull/9137></a>
- OGC API Source type for vector and raster
<a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Documentation/pull/9133"><https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Documentation/pull/9133></a>
I am currently working on updating the documentation related to point cloud
data:
- <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Documentation/issues/7745">https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Documentation/issues/7745</a>
- <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Documentation/issues/7755">https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Documentation/issues/7755</a>
- <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Documentation/issues/9119">https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Documentation/issues/9119</a>
Plans for Next Week
Point Cloud documentation: I plan to finalize the updates for the point
cloud documentation.
Grammar and spelling checks for the QGIS Website: I will continue working
on editing the QGIS website content for grammar and spelling accuracy. I
have already begun this task and will focus on completing it.
*Requests for Assistance:*
Doctest Issue: The doctest in the documentation repository is failing. It
appears that this may be due to outdated Python versions. I'm not very
familiar with resolving this issue. If someone from the development team
could assist in updating the necessary versions or provide guidance, it
would be greatly appreciated.
PR Reviews: If anyone has time to review the open pull requests,
particularly the SensorThings
<a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Documentation/pull/9127"><https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Documentation/pull/9127></a> PR, it would be very
helpful.
Thanks in advance,
Have a nice weekend.
Selma
