I was surprised as well that the 3rd party button has been removed. Can you 
point me to the discussion thread leading to this decision? The options on the 
third tab do still imply 3rd party repositories.

An incomplete list of plugins, which users of 1.8 won't ever find:
-EasyPrint
-CAD Tools
-Click-Fu
-TopoColour
-OpenLayers plugin
-Mapfile tools
-Metatools
-Interlis plugin
-Quantumnik
-OSM Tools

Who is coordinating the transfer of all plugins to the new repo?

Regards
Pirmin
