See the wiki page on what to do before starting a plugin:

https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Before+starting+a+new+plugin

"In case some existing plugins *partly* cover your needs, we encourage you
to contribute directly to these plugins rather than starting new ones from
scratch. Profusion of plugins is good, profusion of plugins doing the same
thing or so is not as good."
