Well, Tane if my understand of "official" is right, that means the plug-in will be maintained by the jQuery dev team even if the original author croaks or otherwise abandons development on the plug-in, and that would mean time they have to spend *not* developing more jQuery Core or UI stuff.
I dunno. Just my two-cents on that one. As for a roll call or some documentation on **exactly** how to best use the plug-in repository that would be fine by me. In fact I'd really welcome documentation on the adding and maintaining a plug-in in the repository. :o) I for one know that my most current code isn't there but instead in the RIAForge.org repository. I think I've got a link on the plug-ins page pointing there though... hmmm... maybe I'd better check. ;o) Chris On 7/16/07, Tane Piper <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Damn my last email never sent.... Maybe its time to do a roll call on plugins. See who is still developing, and who is not. There are some great plugins out there, but they haven't been updated for a while. The plugin repository is great and currently and underused resource. Not all plugins are there, not many voted on or commented on, and I noticed many plugins are using different conventions. Maybe it's also time to start running a "seal of approval" program, where plugins are checked over to see if they are plugins, or scripts or tests/examples. With good code and good documention, it would nice to see a few more official plugins added to the lineup. On 7/16/07, Rey Bango <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > It was a great question.
