Hi,
I¹m glad to see that contribs are getting some new attention with the new
page, but the way we have to go about it is way over complicated.
In order to author a contrib, I must have a fork of your contrib-catalog in
my Github account, clone it to my desktop, edit the Manifest (which is
largely a duplicate of the one in my contrib.¹s repo), commit it, push it,
and issue a pull request.
When I want to release an update to my contrib, I have to download the
Github tar ball to my contrib, checksum it, pull your catalog, edit, commit,
push, issue a pull request.
Sorry, but this is a ridiculous. There are precious few commits to contribs
anyway, and this does absolutely nothing to help foster community spirit or
encourage collaboration.
John
