Team Organization: Llewellyn van der Merwe, Jaz Parkyn

Extension Listings: Tom van der Laan, Oh Martin, Jeroen Moolenschot

• When to check “ext. Specific addon” and when to select a “parent” extension.
• The naming conventions and when what rule applies is unclear.
• Also for extension owners what rules do we enforce on them when it comes to plugin naming. There are some edge cases that are not very clear.
• We need to have the internal document reviewed and finalized.
• When we have that done, we use that as our basis to update the documentation on github and also the documentation in the knowledge base of the JED itself.
• We should also expand the documentation about system naming so it’s more clear for us and the developers also.
• All extension listing rules must be applicable to old and new listings to avoid partiality.
