Hi devs,
Regarding Recommended extensions on e.x.o.
What we don’t FTM is strategy for: * A) When do we review the list of recommended and move some out when they’re no longer matching the recommended criteria * B) When do we review the list of not recommended and propose to move some to recommended
I guess for A) it could be when someone (community, committers) discovers some important problems on the extension or if committers just notice it by chance. In the future we could imagine having a “Unrecommend” button in the UI to allow users to provide feedback as to why an extension should be unrecommended.
For B) it could the extension author proposing an extension to be recommended (or committers noticing a good supported extension and asking the author(s) if they’re willing to comply with the recommended rules). In the future we could imagine having a “Recommend” button in the UI to allow users to provide feedback as to why an extension should be recommended.
WDYT? Any better or others ideas?
Thanks -Vincent
A) I think someone who think an extension should not be recommended anymore should send a vote mail with the reasons. B) -1 for the “Recommend” button. The most important criteria for recommended extensions is to have an active maintainer and that maintainer should be active enough to send a vote on the dev mailing list to ask for the extension to become recommended IMO. -- Thomas Mortagne
