HI Tomeu, thanks for answering.

Well, they are plenty of gedit plugins out-there that are not Gnome-signed, and are not deploy in any distributions. Currently all these plugins live in different places (github, sourceforge, googlecode, etc. ) the idea would be to have them all together. Also, in gedit, many add-ons do not need to be software. They can be style-themes, language files, you name it. Also, there should be a clear distinction whether an addon is Gnome approved (meaning it is reviewed, translated, probably hosted in the gnome git somewhere) or the work of a freelance dev. Distributions are welcome to keep packaging any of the addons, as they do now, but normally the maintainer's cost of distributing 100 or more addons would be too high (in my opinion). In this sense, I would love to have an easy way of installing add-ons that does not require you to copy files to some hidden directories. We should have a command line gnome-addon install add-on-name, which will download and install the add-on. That would be really neat in my opinion.
