We will be having a conversation around extensions and the future of how we will be handling them based on policy, community, and other important factors.
If you are an extensions writer, then I would urge you to join our BoF to help understand what we will be doing with extensions going forward and also provide feedback. We do not want to do this in a vacuum.
https://events.gnome.org/event/16/
Looking forward to hearing from the community. Please understand some of things we will be talking about is:
* Centralilzing the location of extensions to the GNOME gitlab (not necessarily develop your extensions there, but if you want it on e.g.o then it will need to pass QA tests)
* Automatic QAing of extensions prior to release of gnome-shell.
* Policies
* Documentation
* Community building
See you there!
Hello,
I’m the extension writer for https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/258/notifications-alert-on-user-menu/ .
I just saw this post but now it is too late for me to participate. Are the informations provided at the event described anywhere else that I can check?
Fantastic, thank you for reaching out! There is a recording of the BoF that we will publish once it is prepared.
