Thanks for the prompt answer Lova :-)
Ah, I thought this was maybe part of the 'security'-scan for plugins,
from that comes my question.
And about the ordering, I meant the plugin manager in QGIS, not so much
the plugins.qgis.org website. Sorry for the confusion.
Not sure IF the plugins manager has information to change the order
based on the options I mentioned though...
Well, it is implemented long time ago :) You can right-click on the
plugin list to change the sort order. Also, we could easily (without any
GUI changes) add a filter expressions to the search bar
(e.g. "wfs votes:200 stars:4")
By the way, I received an email at my regular address saying that that
confirmation message had been sent to the email address associated with
my plugins (it's a dedicated one). However, I never received that
message (yes, I've checked the spam folder, and that address works fine
in general ;)
Best regards,
B.
Thanks for all your work!!

Hi Richard,
Thanks for raising this.
Any plans to do some communication around this? As I think we will
remove or hide the plugins with unconfirmed mail addresses, I'm afraid
people will miss some of the plugins.
As raised many times in some PRs and changes, feedback was given about
effectively communicating any upcoming changes on the plugin
repository. So, the first step is to confirm that the email address
provided by a plugin author in the metadata.txt is responsive
according to the state on the plugin's upload page (https://
plugins.qgis.org/plugins/add/ <https://plugins.qgis.org/plugins/add/>).
If there's any plan to remove or hide plugins with unconfirmed mail
addresses, I think we need to always try to communicate them in some
other way (on the repository of the plugin, for example).
Another thing I want to bring up: having so many plugins now,
would it be an idea to order the list based on: the number of stars,
of number of downloads? Then at least plugins which earned some
credits will be most viewable, instead of handy authors naming there
plugins so that they appear upfront :-)
I think this categorised list already exists, but maybe we could bring
them on the upper level? So we would have "Popular plugins" or "Most
downloaded" plugins instead of "All plugins" on the top bar and
accessible from the "Explore" link.
Best regards,
Lova Andriarimalala

Personally I received a question from QGIS.org to confirm the
email address(es) I use for my plugins.
As one of the mail admins, I receive a lot of 'no replies' from
others. Because the person does not work there anymore or changed mail
etc etc.

But also I would have missed this mail if not receiving all the
'returned' mails... :-)
