Congratulations Dan! I know this has been something that's been
problematic for a long time, so it's great you were able to improve
things (and by the sound of it, things have improved by a lot)

Your patch adding improved management abilities is of course welcome,
but it is not a magic bullet that can be used in all circumstances.

I think they can actually work well for both those cases[1] and they do
serve as a safety net.

before writing an in-depth reply, but I want to say that I think
the dialog prompt is more to educate/remind people of the garbage
collection system, rather than to make it habit-proof. Also, I'm pretty
sure that Blender's reference counting is an implementation of garbage
collection
should be scrapped, it means
that the safeguards should be implemented.
Don't get me wrong, I agree that users losing data is a very bad thing,
but please don't throw the baby out with the bathwater.

I disagree here. Having an online repository would:

The way I see it is that as an add-on author you get both the freedom and
the responsibility for development, docs, and marketing. If anything we
should decouple such things more, rather than integrating them.

It seems to me that you are still having drop in pseudo-meetings on
Mondays, just not advertising them.
I understand that if something doesn't work it needs to be reevaluated
