    Presently only Ditto is "Core Team Audited" in the Repo.

    I guess that snippets included in the core distro will also qualify? Wayfinder should therefore recieve this accolade, unless we’re waiting for Wayfinder 1 (latest release in Repo is "beta2").

    By what other mechanism will/should a resource get the Core Team Audited tag?

    Also, same questions about "Featured Items".

      No, I don't know what OpenGeek's saying half the time either.

      We don’t really have the team structure in place to handle this right now.

      And honestly, I think really it’s not all that important in the grand scheme of things. Featured might make sense, but really ... is it necessary? I don’t think so. We might want a tiny unobtrusive indicator that its part of the core distribution, but as it is now, there’s so many little badges and whatnot that confuse where the heck the download button is... or what’s a button and what’s a badge. We have some room for usability improvement to preeminently capable base code, and I’ve only barely scratched the surface of my suggestions ... I need to get back to that!

        Fair enough. I wasn’t really thinking about the badge, more the fact that "Core Team Audited" appears on the "Filter View By" dropdown. If we don’t have a Core Team auditing snippets, and the Core Team are concentrating on the Core, then perhaps this should be removed to avoid confusion?

          Sorry for the slow response on this one...just reviewing posts I’ve skipped in the somewhat recent past...

          First, yes, until we have a core development policy in place (working on it, just not much time), this is second priority in my mind for the team. We do need to address a code review policy for core code and add-ons though.

          And I strongly agree we need to simplify the add-on repository A LOT more. When it looks a little more like http://lussumo.com/addons/ I’ll be a lot happier. I thought this was the original model we were after, but I’m sure we have a little more complication to deal with than Vanilla does when making add-ons available. There’s gotta be some more things we can do though.
