[Qgis-user] Plugin List

[Gary Sherman]

My thought was the plugin home page would contain all the extra  
information, rather than trying to capture that in the repository. On  
the other the other hand, you can enter as much descriptive text as  
you like when you upload a plugin.

I do think that at a minimum a README should be included.
