FYI, we had a call with Gaurav and Fabian today, in which Carlos and me introduced both guys to the plugin verification process, delievered a quick demo and answered all questions. Gaurav and Fabian agreed to joining our team of plugin verifiers, so they both were granted the necessary access rights and will start processing plugin verification requests from today, which will surely significantly shorten the waiting time until plugins are checked and approved for publishing on the Update Center.

Welcome to the team guys and thanks a lot for your help!

If anyone else would like to contribute the same way, please let me know.

Have a nice weekend everyone!

Hey Geertjan,

Sure, as said, I’m happy to join, but I don’t know how. Is there a
Confluence page or anything on how to join?

Best regards,
Fabian

Simplest solution is for more to join in with the verification process.
It’s not much work and anyone is welcome to join in.

Hi everyone,

I updated four plugins (actually two plugins and two extensions for one
of
the plugins) and it took quite some time to get them approved and some
of
them are still not. Also I had to drop the verification for my previous
version for some of the older NetBeans version to be able to request the
approval for the new version as they haven’t been approved yet, my
plugin
is not available via the plugin center inside the NetBeans IDE for those
versions at all.

All that made me think and led me to those questions:

- Is it really necessary to go through the approval process for each
version? Sure you can introduce bugs in any new version and cause
issues,
but I’m just asking a question to start a discussion on how to improve
thinks here, I haven’t thought that through yet.
- Would it be possible to provide something like an authorized publisher
account which is able to publish trusted plugins? Maybe they could have
an
easier or not approval workflow at all?
- Or Is it possible to support the NetBeans team in the approval of
plugins? (not my own of course, but I guess I’m not the only one who’s
waiting for approvals)

Just to make that clear: I’m not really complaining, I actually like the
plugin portal, but I would like to start a discussion on how to make it
easier for the NetBeans team which needs to maintain this and for the
developers to get our plugins verified easier and/or faster.


Kind regards,
Fabian
