Hi Alessandro,

Thanks for chiming in.

But in that particular case (HelloWorld), I feel that people are using it
as a template to explore/start the development of their plugins. It was
downloaded more than 4000 times and people did warn me in the past when it was broken/uncompatible with newer QGIS version. In other words, even if it does just nothing (it's a test plugin) I'm sure it has been useful to other users.

I'm sure the plugin is useful for plugin developers. For users though, it's just confusing to have a plugin offered which doesn't do anything.

No problem for me to left it unpublished, I will republish it if I need it
for testing but next time, please, be polite and ask the author *before*
unpublishing.

Sorry, I didn't think it was a big deal since it's not a silent procedure, there are notifications, and reapproving it just one click. I completely agree that plugins which users might depend on should not be unpublished without notification, except if something is seriously wrong. As I already mentioned, I think it's enough if Hello world is marked experimental anyway, so I reapproved it.

Best wishes,
Anita
