| '''Plugins guardians''' are Moodle community members who volunteer to provide peer-reviews on plugins submitted into the [[Plugins directory]]. Their peer-review is considerably taken into account when deciding on the plugin approval.
| |
| | |
| == Mission ==
| |
| | |
| These are the main principles and goals of the Plugins guardians programme:
| |
| | |
| # Help to build healthy and sustainable eco-system of Moodle plugins.
| |
| # Protect the Moodle sites from dangerous, unreliable and generally badly written plugins.
| |
| # Serve the plugin authors by providing them with honest feedback on their work, together with suggestions on how to learn to improve their code.
| |
| | |
| These three come in this priority order. So for example, even not-so-well-written plugins can be approved as long as it is believed the community would profit from them and there are signs that maintainers will improve them in the future.
| |
| | |
| == Credits and awareness == | |
| | |
| For providing peer-reviews, guardians collect experience points in the internal credits tracking system.
| |
| | |
| * Once they collect enough experience points to reach the level 2 "Novice Guardian", guardians become members of the [https://moodle.org/user/index.php?id=5&group=305 Plugins guardians group] at moodle.org
| |
| * When reaching the level 3 "Junior Guardian", the [https://moodle.org/badges/overview.php?id=15 Plugins guardian badge] is awarded to them.
| |
| | |
| == How to join ==
| |
| | |
| Moodle developers and experienced users are welcome to sign up for the Plugin guardians programme. Please email David Mudrák <david@moodle.com> for more details.
