Description (last modified by )
I would like to raise awareness for an issue I see on the plugin and profile pages:
We list every contributor for a plugin if the account name is added to the plugins readme.txt file - but there is no way to opt-out. And there is no way to differentiate between active and emerit contributors.
We also show every contributor on the plugin page, but without any specifics. On the profile page we differentiate between Developer, Contributor and Support Rep, but on the plugin page we just see a list of Developers & Contributors. You can also be Support Rep for this plugin without being listed here …
Therefore, I would recommend changing the list of “Contributors & Developers” on the plugin page according to the areas in the profile page as a first step:
- Developers: Everyone with commit access or ownership.
- Support Reps: Everyone marked as support rep for this plugin.
- Contributors: Everyone listed in the readme.txt as contributor (without all accounts already in “Developers” or "Support Reps" listed)
To my understanding this should be possible with the already existing data.
Active/Emerit contributors or opting-out of a listing needs changes to the header or something else, so I think this would be phase 2, if we want to have this feature.
What do you think?
