Well, showing it as an "application" might be misleading. I haven't
thought much about it.
I guess it matters a bit less if we have the redesign that shows them
all on the home page.
Another idea would be to succeed in having the same XClass for all
extensions (if possible - I wanted to do that initially but found
there were different, maybe we can try again) and then use tags for
categorize extensions (and the tag cloud feature of the livetable on
the home page).

BTW making SSX/JSX "mods" avail on code.xwiki.org would be good.

I think it might be overkill (and would add unnecessary
complexity).
Especially since this can be done easily using a SSX, right?
Yes SSX "mod" is the alternative. > -Vincent
