[Qt-creator] Plugin Contributions

[Tobias Hunger]

Hello everybody!

We are happy that so many people are willing to spend their time working 
on plug-ins for Qt Creator, thereby making a cool IDE even better.

So far we have accepted the mercurial plugin (Brian McGillion), the 
class view and image view (both by Denis Mingulov), macros (Nicolas 
Arnaud-Cormos) and just today the bazaar plugin (Hugues Delorme) into 
the Qt Creator code base. A big round of applause for those splendid 
contributions, please! I just hope I did not forget somebody... even if 
I did: We do appreciate your efforts a lot!

Today I set out to document the process that leads to us accepting (or 
rejecting) plug-ins that are contributed. Please take a look at 
http://developer.qt.nokia.com/wiki/Qt_Creator_Plug-in_Contribution_Guide 
and tell me whether the process is acceptable for you and where we can 
improve on it.

This page also includes a short section on how we are going to remove 
plug-ins again if that becomes necessary.

Best Regards,
Tobias
