[jira] [Reopened] (NETBEANS-3569) unsuitable/failed-verification
plugin not indicated as such by plugin portal
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-3569?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Ernie Rael reopened NETBEANS-3569:
----------------------------------
Did some code for the plugin detail page not make it?
This issue is about "failed" indication (not passed, though the changes to the main page look nice). I do not see any indication that the jVi plugin failed verification. It looks like verified and pending are clearly indicated. But there is still no distinction between "no verification requested" and "verification failed". It's probable that additional information for the failed case would be useful, for example "wouldn't load", "crashed", "interfered with system", or I don't know what.
Consider two use cases:
# Plugin user: I want to know about the plugin. I do not want to download a plugin which is listed as "NetBeans compatible" and find out that is does not even load, or causes NB to crash.
# Plugin publisher: I don't want to put my software on a site that doesn't care about quality.
There has been no statement about the reluctance to indicate a failed status. Perhaps if that was clarified there would be understanding or at least a discussion.

> I submitted a plugin to the apache portal and requested verification, I built the plugin (maven) against NB-11.2.
> The plugin correctly failed verification since it would not load on NB-11.0.
> There is no indication on the plugin portal that this plugin failed verification, or even that verification was requested. No indication either publicly or privately when I look at things through "My plugins".
