Hi, with the inclusion of a plugin system we provide a convenient way of injecting functionalities to Koha. I was about to write one myself for implementing some cute graphics (jqPlot) and circulation statistics we had in our 3.0.x fork prior to our 3.8 upgrade.
Then I came to think this should indeed be proposed as a new Koha feature (for which there's even a bug). I ended up thinking: - Plugins provide a convenient way to deploy some stuff early (which I need for our 3.12 move), like stuff won't make it into a specific release. - If I succeed I should post it somewhere so people can use it. - There's not a convenient way for it to get QAed so we cannot provide any warranty (not legal but in terms of confidence on Koha as a product) it won't break sensitive stuff (a reports plugin sounds harmless but what limits are imposed to plugins? I guess none). So, I belive we should discuss the creation of a sort of "Official plugins repository" where QAed plugins could be uploaded. I'm thinking out loud and not an native english speaker, so I'm sorry if this is not understandable. Just let me know :-D Regards To+
