Hey folks,
I was looking through the plugins at jquery.com/plugins/ and noticed
that, even though the project pages have bug-report and feature-
request tools built right in, hardly any of the plugins have anything
entered for any of it. Kelvin Luck's plugins are the only ones I saw
from a cursory skim through the list that are taking advantage of them.
So, I'm curious. What do more seasoned plugin developers recommend
for tracking bugs and feature requests? Why is hardly anyone using
these on the plugin pages? Is there something better out there that
others are using? It's seems a shame not to use what looks like a
nice tool. But before I jump in and start using it for my own plugin,
I thought I'd seek the perspective of others.
As I've been working on the clueTip plugin, one of the hardest things
for me has been to keep track of what people want out of it and what
they're finding wrong with it. I think it would be nice to have a
centralized location where I could monitor this stuff for my own
plugins, and it would also be cool to be able to look at other plugin
pages and check on their progress.
Any thoughts on this? How about not just from plugin *developers*,
but from plugin *users* as well? People out there using these plugins
-- would you find it helpful to be able to look at these plugin pages
at the jquery.com plugin repository and check on their status?
Okay, sorry, I'm rambling.
--Karl
