[Q-e-developers] Add names of packages' maitainers to "install/plugins_list"

[Filippo SPIGA]

Hi Andrea,

Personally I believe it is fine to leave the various tar.gz under "archive/" once they have been downloaded the first time. For the majority of them (CORE for sure), they will not change until the next official release (and the plugin_list will be updated with the new version number). Keeping downloading each time after a "make distclean" when they never change... it is just consuming network bandwidth. Plus someone can decide to manually put them under "archive" before transfer the source code on a system that may not have internet access to the outside (there are cases like that).

Paolo, opinions?

I am seeking your help to populate the file "install/plugins_list". I am looking for a name of a person (or a group of people) that somehow is the reference person for a specific package. No need to put a email address.
