Ok, so we need a list of valid category values.

Additionally, there must be a place where the specifications for the
plugin metadata structure is maintained. AFAIK the most up-to-date
source of information is the page on github
https://github.com/qgis/qgis-django/blob/master/qgis-app/plugins/docs/introduction.rst

Are there any other places ?
Can we keep the informations there or move them to a better place  ?

Options:

* gihub docs
* the wiki
* the new plugin web app (on a static page)

Also: the list of valid category values must be added to the specs and
a pointer must be provided when the user uploads a plugin with the
wrong/empty category metadata.


Hello!

I do not want to make things more complicated and I am not a developer, but in future I might write the one or the other plugin and additionally, there is an old idea of an "Ecological Toolbox" floating around (http://hub.qgis.org/wiki/quantum-gis/Ecology_Tools):

If there is a plugin which might be more of a small application by itself (but not big enough for a standalone app) and therefore does not fit into the "basic" GIS/technical groups of raster, vector... and needs several sub-menu items, will it be still be possible to give this plugin its own menu?

Sticking to the example of this ecological toolbox, I think it would be the best solution to give it an own menu with submenus:

Ecological Toolbox
- Niche modelling
- Landscape metrics
- ...

and that should still be possible, so for clarification: Will this still possible?

kind regards,
Albin
