One use case comes to my mind: Imagine I want to move the trunk of my Dialog contrib from sourceforge to github (as I actually do --- BTW sorry that the trunk of this contrib is still buggy). Looking at the sf SVN, there would be no way of knowing this, and keeping the wiki updated is a nuisance (I am so lazy), and people wouldn't necessarily have a look.
If, however, the config.json file just contained a reference to the name of the contrib, and the central repository would know from where a particular version of the contrib can be downloaded, this would avoid a lot of confusion, rid the contrib users from having to deal with URLs etc. -- View this message in context: http://qooxdoo.678.n2.nabble.com/the-contrib-site-tp7580681p7580755.html Sent from the qooxdoo mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
