Add a folder "additional" to the cleanerml repo

[Tobias-B-Besemer]

Suggestion: Add a folder "additional" to the cleanerml repo.

Then the splitting of the cleaners can be: release = Included in the BleachBit release additional = Not included in the BB release, but "stable" and save for use for end-users pending = "unstable"/unfinished cleaners intended to other developers/editors/beta-tester

E.g. my cleaner biglybt.xml I would suggest for "additional", but my cleaner smart_switch_pc_and_kies.xml should go into "pending" that maybe a other dev/editor have a look on and improve it later.

The pending vs. release has been hard to manage, so I was thinking of combining them. In that case, I think this folder would be unnecessary too. What do you think?

I think you should keep it/go the suggested way with 3 folders.

• You need a place for stable, additional cleaners if you don't want to include all stables in the BB releases
• Editors need examples to study, so the "releases" should be near
• Editors maybe want to improve the "releases", to, so they should be close by

It's my view as a editor... ...and from that side, I would rater suggest you, to remove the cleaners from the BB Repo... If this is possible for you... Or just keep there 1-3 for peoples who download source, wanna compile and run it... and a note/link to the CleanerML Repo for all...

Btw.: I read in a bug about (maybe) future downloading of additional cleaners from GitHub...? Wouldn't then a folder for stable (additional) and unstable (pending) not really usable ???

Other option: Give the cleanerml repo up and manage all cleaners in the bleachbit repo (maybe in 2-3 folders)...
