<br>
If they've all been manually picked at some time, can I suggest we<br>
drop these ones from the list?<br>
<br>
- Processing R Provider: it's quite a niche one, and requires a lot of<br>
technical knowledge to get it to do anything in the first place<br>
- Plugin builder/plugin reloader: these are plugin *developer* focused<br>
plugins. I think the featured list should concentrate on user-focused<br>
plugins.<br>
- Mask: this is an older plugin, predominantly superseded by inbuilt<br>
QGIS functionality now<br>
- Time manager: as above<br>
<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:small">Thanks we will take care of that. As for the process of how things get featured: There isn't any formal process in place. In the past someone (not clear to me who) would nominate plugins to be featured, but it was done on a whim I believe. Maybe we should unfeature everything and come up with a formal process. I think being featured could be used to:</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:small">* raise the profile of less known plugins</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:small">* highlight 'game changer' plugins (e.g. some of the new AI based ones are really interesting)</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:small">* highlight plugins that provide key complementary functionality to QGIS e.g. QuickOSM, Ismail's new resources plugin etc.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:small">We didnt really advertise it too much but we also have analytics on the plugins repo and one of Lova's todo tasks is to improve the insights we can gain from the plugins repo activity. If we can come up with something more algorithmic to feature plugins we could use the metrics to do it but I think it is probably more of a subjective process. Maybe we can have a 'nominate and vote' process and also make being featured ephemeral (e.g. 1 month).<br><br><span style="color:rgb(76,87,115);font-family:Lato,sans-serif;font-size:14px;white-space:pre-wrap"><a href="http://plugins.qgis.org/public/dashboard/7ecd345f-7321-423d-9844-71e526a454a9" target="_blank">http://plugins.qgis.org/public/dashboard/7ecd345f-7321-423d-9844-71e526a454a9</a></span><br><br><a class="gmail_plusreply" id="m_-7658013844100946583plusReplyChip-0" href="mailto:lova@kartoza.com" target="_blank">@Lova Andriarimalala</a> can you surface the metrics into the new plugins site submenu please (with a user friendly subdomain e.g. <a href="http://plugin-metrics.qgis.org" target="_blank">plugin-metrics.qgis.org</a>?<br><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:small">Regards</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:small">Tim</div></div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left-width:1px;border-left-style:solid;border-left-color:rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">
