Yeah, but until plugins built on earlier releases (like 2.1) work on later maintenance updates (like 2.1.1 and 2.1.2) and we fix the currently broken 2.1.1 plugin repo, I don't think we really want to over-hype this feature....

By "the currently broken 2.1.1 plugin repo" do you just mean the fact that in G 2.1.1 the console defaults to the 2.1 plugin repo rather than the 2.1.1 plugin repo? The 2.1.1 plugin repo itself is not broken AFAIK and should work correctly if you access it.

Yeah, that's a good point. But there are some things we could do
without the collapsible tree, for example, ensure that the debug views
always show up on the bottom, or combine "Information" and "Java
System Info" into one portlet.

Anyway, I proposed this change becuase I feel like we should make
plugins and plugins infrastructure much more visible. Not only in the
console but everywhere else such as the website, documentation, etc.

I'd rather keep Plugins under applications.

As Joe pointed out, the navigational tree is already taking up too much
vertical space now for lower resolution displays. Maybe if we ever have the
collapsible tree again, then we could rearrange/regroup the portlets...

Hey,

Right now, the plugins portlet is not all that visible in the admin
console (it's under Applications / Plugins). I think it would be great
to make it more visible by creating a new "Plugins" section with
"Install", "Export", and "Assemble Server" subsections. I already
created three separate portlets for these plugin operations so
rearranging things visually should be easy.

Thoughts?
