Yes.  Using the previous release as the baseline set is far from a new

well this was only a part what i was suggesting, it was supposed to be a one time event linked to a notification mail.

however, thinking about this a bit more:

it is probably better to send the notification mail after the new plugin portal changes are in. Since there is not really an advantage to create that baseline earlier. So that all still-maintained plugins can request the verification under the new model.

This would hopefully also pick up some of the 12.0-verified plugins which disappeared from the plugin manager some time ago - assuming the maintainers read the mail and press the button :)

Sorry for coming late to this discussion.

Anyway, I very much like the idea of notification button which would give owners of plugins supporting already released version 14 a chance to quickly double check that their plugins work in version 15 and then request official verification in that upcoming version. Maybe we could send the notification around the time when 15 RC1 voting opens?

No RCx voting. "quickly double check" requires that plugin authors  download an RC and do the testing. I don't always download an RC, so there's nothing quick about that.'

I like the model where, after a plugin' initial verification, they are automatically included in the subsequent catalogs; a plugin becomes "unverified" if there's a problem detected.

With this model, the issues/questions revolve around what it take to unverify a plugin?

Perhaps the top <##>%, by download, are automatically scheduled for verification? Maybe a plugin can be marked as dependent on volatile/dynamic API's and so does not get automatic inclusion; there could be a check a box that disables automatic inclusion in the next catalog. There is nothing to prevent the plugin team from doing verification even if it is not requested.

Simplifying/semiautomatic email notification, as needed, sounds good.

BTW, I have already created version 15 in the Plugin Portal so that owners can start requesting the verifications.

However, I am not not much in favor of getting rid of plugin verifications completely. As Yarda pointed out we often see issues with JDK such as these and I for one consider the manual verifications useful:

My two cents,
