Purpose of meaning #2

Open ldez opened 8 years ago

I suggest to use this repository to centralize the issues on 'extra-tools'.

We can move issues in grammar package here.

We must not add feature in this repository.

This role is only to aggregate the others packages and queries.

We can go in one of two directions:

  1. Use this package as a meta package to group recommended AsciiDoc-related packages
  2. Use this package to hold additional utilities for writing AsciiDoc, such as the image helper (and instead create the package atom-asciidoc-bundle to serve as the meta package)

The question is really whether we need a repository to hold helper utilities...or whether we should stick to the model of using one package per tool.

ldez commented 8 years ago

I prefer the model of using one package per tool because this encourage people to create their own packages.

If we merge all packages in a bundle, this will create maintenance problems when cross changes or bugs.

Remember the preview package with autocomplete.

mojavelinux commented 8 years ago

That certainly feels right. There may be some understanding that packages that are dependencies of this meta package can coordinate (through events, naturally).

I have a problem: for very simple features we cannot create a plugin for each features.

We must have a package with those simple features.
