Bugtracker and code repo for plugin

PC Paolo Cavallini Public Seen by 7

Do you agree in making the code repo and bugtracker a requisite for plugin publication?

I think we can go one step at a time: first the bugtracker and the code repo, then the documentation. I would like to be gentle with the plugin authors, especially the many newcomers.
Several plugins are so straightforward that a 2 line about is just fine.

I would like to reopen the old vatation, and first agree on that, but I do not know if and how it is possible.

Imho the original one is agreed on and is not affected by the new additional suggestion.

What I would like to see is a short description as Anita has suggested.

An About would be nice; I always suggest plugin writer to add it. In some cases it is not an absolute necessity; I would not make it compulsory.

It would be helpful if a trusted group of users of the plugin website could edit the plugin descriptions to add details. As far as I know, currently the description can only be changed in the metadata by uploading a new version of the plugin archive.
