<mick_home> mrdocs: reopen that last one
<mick_home> it was in the UI of scribus -- NOT the webpage
<mick_home> notice the category?
<mick_home> the website had nothing to do w/ it
<mick_home> so it is not a dup

The problem with this kind of thing is that each and every script needs verifiying and testing before we would allow it to be downloaded. Scripts can potentially destroy a system, especially on an unsecure OS like Windows.

cbradney: I disagree, though a system of "signed" plugins may make sense. A disclaimer may be necessary though.

We have a policy of not exposing users to potentially dangerous scripts so, yes, this is possible. Python scripts can do a lot of wonderful things and any script that gets uploaded needs checking if we are going to distribute it.

In general, this idea is good, but theres a lot of work to support it at the level we would be happy to say its ours.
