Hi,
I was doing a pass on the catalog??? I think is very negative that non-documented projects appear there??? because most people does not know what does projects are about and newcomers will find weird a project install tool with lots of projects without any description. So I was thinking on put an option ???show all??? and hide those projects by default??? but now I think those projects SHOULD NOT BE VISIBLE AT ALL, as a way of:
- offer better experience to non-power users, and - encourage people to actually document their projects??? is very annoying to have so much of them without any documentation.
What do you think?
Rather than hiding projects that people were legitimately allowed to add (at the time), why not modify the catalog to not accept projects that don't have sufficient metadata, including the description? IIRC there was some discussion about hiding or lowering the priority of projects that haven't been modified or confirmed as working in the latest versions of Pharo. That would still be useful. Between the two, that would get rid of undocumented projects. Just my 2c, Alistair
