[QGIS-Developer] Experimental flag

Tue Apr 15 08:42:26 PDT 2025

Hi Paolo,

Yes, the plugin is not approved yet, and it shouldn't be possible to
download it either from the website or QGIS as a normal user. However, the
plugin could be downloaded by a reviewer or someone with permission and
triggered the counter. But I guess it's part of the workflow.

Best regards,

Lova Andriarimalala
