Change Details

It was based on a meeting July 6th, 2020. Conditions for a plugin: - promise of maintenance - generally useful (not a niche feature) or lots of users (based on KA/github activitity -> that proves usefulness) - needs to be checked for security - not absolutely terrible code quality - ??? Not accepted plugins: - share.krita.org - maybe we should decommission? There is some weird stuff happening there, well, not weird, it's just a part of some bigger website (pling.com) that asks for financial support and lets you download //their// app, and since it's on krita.org, people might rightfully think that we are controlling it when we're not. - docs.krita.org -> Resources - do we want to keep resources like scripts, potentially bundles etc. on our own servers? For now docs.krita.org only accepts links (usually to github etc.)
