Yes, this one: https://github.com/qgis/qgis-django/blob/master/qgis-app/plugins/docs/introduction.rst I would suggest that you complete/integrate/update the (static) pages on the new plugin site (you now have staff account at http://plugins.qgis.org/admin/ ) with instructions for plugin users and plugin authors. Once there is a page with instructions about metadata, I could change messages when user uploads a plugin pointing to metadata instructions. Metadata example: https://github.com/qgis/qgis-django/blob/master/qgis-app/plugins/tests/HelloWorld/1.3-full-md-no-init/HelloWorld/metadata.txt There is still one point missing: the new "category" metadata. I'm wating for a final decision about this new metadata and then it can be added to the new repo. -- Alessandro Pasotti w3: www.itopen.it _______________________________________________ Qgis-developer mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer
