[rkward-devel] splitting repos?

hi,

the most natural way to start working on something like RKTeaching would 
probably be to fork it as the RKWard community group. hopefully, we will see 
more development like this in the future. however, this does not work so well 
with the rather monolithic external-plugins repo. it also makes it a bit hard 
to tag releases of individual plugins, and if you'd like to contribute to just 
one of those you'd still have to get them all, which might become a problem 
over time (when it grows). is there a real advantage of having all plugins in 
one repo?

if not, i would like to try to split the external plugins repository on github 
into one for each plugin[1].

this might also be a good idea for the XiMpLe and rkwarddev packages, which 
are currently part of the RKWard sources and cannot be tagged/cloned 
individually.
