Not Fabrizio's doing at all, I'm just asking that you be careful in what you apply because the xdoc plugin is going to be one of the first bridges between component land, and with it maintainability, and the maven1 plugins. > > People are going to work on what they're interested in, you > > can't stipulate they have to work on more then one if they > > really have no desire to. > > True, but I think for someone coming in as a committer they should express > interest in helping in a variety of areas as none of the plugins as a > project in themselves is really that spectacular. Who cares if it's spectacular or not, if Arnaud ever only works on the PDF plugin and does a good job I'm not going to fault him for that. As with everything you're going to get a mix, people people who work specificially on a particular plugin and those like you and Dion who might not know much about a particular plugin but about plugins in general. At any rate a list of core versus other plugins as this might not be much of an issue if a lot of the plugins are pushed out. Just glancing at the list I think half of them could be pushed out easily. > - Brett -- jvz.
