[Qgis-developer] Problems uploading plugin to repository

Hi!

as the plugins are getting unzipped in the plugins folder (in the users
home directory) each plugin has to have it's own folder (to not interfer
with other plugins).
So the zip file has to have a folder first - and inside the folder the
plugin code ..

plugin.zip
+pluginname(folder)
  +metadata.txt
  +anotherfolder
  +programcode

Hope this helps
Werner
