You really should move your plugins repository to projects.blender.org. 
Actually, I'm wondering why this hasn't happened yet.

I thought "make release" did that. At least when doing test builds on HP-UX I 
had to disable building plugins because of errors in the bmake script. (In 
case anyone's wondering: There won't be an official build for HP-UX, it was 
just a test.)
