A five-stars rating + comment system would certainly help trac-hacks being useful faster. Recently-viewed and recently-downloaded counters could also help see popularity. Another idea: a packages setup.py is able to define dependencies, which are automatically downloaded / installed when that package is installed. Using this mechanism, it should be possible to provide and maintain certain StuffThatIsUsefulForXZYBundle packages which draw in sets of plugins that work together well towards certain goals. Finally, I'd like to mention that I do not think that the vast array of plugins on trac-hacks is bad at all. While it took some time to wade through most of the descriptions, there are really lots of gems to be found which start to make my Trac deployment a lot more useful. And it appears as if Trac is deployed in vastly different circumstances all over the place, so this "lego brick" approach is probably the best! best regards Patrick "bof" Schaaf -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Trac Development" group.
