[Bf-docboard] Reset 3D View plugin

[marco ardito]

As Francesco said, here 
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Doc/Process/Addons
are the guidelines,
<<
Submitting an Addon
* Follow the Guidelines for Addons when implementing it.
* Ensure you have a page in the Addons Catalog.
* Submit the Addon on developer.blender.org
* Try to get your addons tested by users, gather feedback and improve as 
needed.
 >>

So

1) did you follow the Guidelines for Addons when implementing it?
see http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:2.5/Py/Scripts/Guidelines/Addons

2) you need a page on the Addons Catalog 
(http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Extensions:2.6/Py/Scripts)
see below

3) You should Submit the Addon on developer.blender.org
At bottom of Addons Catalog above page you see the "categories" 
definition: I guess your script has to start as "external", so
Two cases:
* Submitted to Addons project on developer.blender.org and under review 
(http://developer.blender.org/project/view/3/)
* Not developed on Blender Foundation's servers and hosted elsewhere 
(e.g. Luxrender or Yafaray addons).

4) Try to get your addons tested by users, gather feedback and improve 
as needed.
well you should know how to do this: if not try announce it on some 
blender artists forum to get people try it, and get some feedback.

------------------------------------------------

About 2) I guess your script should go under the "3D View Scripts" section

so you could create a page like
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Extensions:2.6/Py/Scripts/3D_interaction/Reset_3D_View
To create that page,
- log into wiki with your user
- visit that address above,
- you should get this "There is currently no text in this page. You can 
search for this page title in other pages, search the related logs, or 
edit this page."
- click on "edit this page" link, and then you are in edit mode: if you 
save, the page is created.

The best thing is:
- read what suggested here http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Help:Editing
then
- before create/edit your page, look at other addon pages that most 
resemble what you wish to create for your script,
- you can create your page as said above, from scratch, trying to be 
consistent with common addon pages structure
- otherwise you can enter the "edit mode" of that similar page, COPY the 
content and DO NOT SAVE.
- then on your page, enter edit mode and paste what you copied. Edit 
what needs to be, and describe your plugin.
- always preview your changes before saving, wth the "show preview" button
- try to save as less times as possibile, and if you need to correct 
typos, or other minor changes not really relevant, save only after 
clicking "This is a minor edit" checkbox
- if you need images, you have to load them before: click the menu 
"wiki" in the lower right corner of the edit page, and open "upload 
file" (http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Special:Upload) in a new 
window, use that to upload the image, once completed you get a name like 
"File:Myimage.jpg"
- to insert that image in your edited page source, use this syntax (you 
will see similar code on other pages for respective images):
[[File:Myimage.jpg]]
- If you make mistakes, and saved them, see the "history" link (upper 
right) and you see all your edits, and can revert them individually.

if you have doubts and don't find any helping section, ask here :)
