I forgot to mention one thing. I am not sure what the Gnome Shell Extension license policy is currently. I have found an email: http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnome-shell-list/2012-January/msg00005.html where they mention that it would be better if everything was GPL v2+ or at least compatible if multi-licensed.
I hope that Gnome Shell Extensions don't fall into the Mozilla Add-on trap. It would be a waste if we had to maintain a free listing of Shell Extensions too. Besides that, I've also seen extensions being packaged. I am not sure if that is the preferred way. They do relate to the Desktop (something active all the time) as opposed to a browser (not used all the time). So I am not sure if it is better to provide a packaged (snapshot) version of the better extensions (or our default ones if that happens) to ensure that the desktop works properly. I have no idea how extension updates are handled, so that is something to keep in mind too. -- Morne Alberts
