Discussion: Publish Package Acceptance Criteria

This issue has been made to discuss the usefulness of publishing the criteria used to accept packages to this community list.

Summary

I'm not sure how useful this is relative to Google's own effort regarding Flutter Favorites. It would be nice to see why the packages were accepted and understand any security concerns.

Publishing the criteria might help pre-suggested packages meet minimum standards you are looking for. However, obviously maintaining the criteria will take some work, which you might not have the humanpower to do.

It also seems like Flutter Favorites and your organization might be doing redundant work, and I'm wondering if there is any way it could be combined (obviously Google would have to choose to interact with you which might not be what you want).

I'm curious to the process of acceptance or refusal and I've read the Transfer guide, which has a bit of info there, but I'll be happy to know more.

@whitemagehealing Is there a similar discussion or an outline for Flutter Favorites that is publicly available?

whitemagehealing commented 2 years ago

@avioli I think the Metrics section of the link you posted might be the only outline. I'm not quite sure where a public discussion would take place, so maybe there is a discussion, but I don't know where it is. At the same link, they do have an email on that site to contact the Flutter Ecosystem Committee to submit your package and ask questions.
