Hi Peter, note that my +0 is equal to a go, so I am not going to block you. I am just trying to make everybody remember that the "official extension" label shall be used for something that is: - quite stable - with a significant user base
Did we always enforce this? Definitely not. Am I asking to enforce this now? No. So I am happy to have you move on with this proposal :) Regards, Simone Giannecchini == GeoServer Professional Services from the experts!
