[Bf-committers] Blender 2.93 Released!

[Ryan Inch]

After thinking some more on this, I can see why this is appealing, 
however, Blender is in the unique position of including add-ons as an 
integral part.  This makes it more inclusive than other software and 
provides a good way to onboard new, Blender, developers.  An online 
repository for non-bundled, free add-ons and other things Blender 
related could be worth pursuing, and to this end I have a couple questions.

Is there a design task with ideas for the potential add-ons repository?
Are you hoping to have this repository up and running for the 3.0 release?

And referring back to my initial inquiries:
Unless the intention is to remove the bundled add-ons from Blender 
before the 3.0 release, would it be possible to update the credit gen 
script to include the add-ons repository?  After playing around with it 
for a bit, I was able to modify the script to include the add-ons 
repository fairly easily, but I'm not familiar with the entire process, 
so I'm wondering if there is a technical limitation I'm unaware of that 
has prevented add-ons from being included with the rest of the credits?

In which bcon does the marketing team start looking through the wiki 
release notes to compile the fancy release notes and how long after that 
is the wiki monitored for updates?

Thanks.
