Comment 1 Jiri Kovalsky 2008-12-04 08:34:27 UTC 
The plugin has been staged but I have one comment. For some reason "python.options" plugin is also offered but it has
strange name and no description. See attached screenshot. Is it even necessary to be displayed? If not, simply set
<manifest AutoUpdate-Show-In-Client="false" in the module's descriptor and attach new binary for re-staging. Can you
take a look at this Petre? Thanks a lot!

Comment 3 Petr Jiricka 2008-12-04 13:03:13 UTC 
Yes, this is a known bug #151351, which is also present in the EA release. Do you feel this needs to be fixed? My
thinking was that we should publish the exact same bits that are a part of the EA, including any bugs. If we wanted to
fix this, we would need to have a codeline (clone) created off the EA tag, where we would put the change, and it would
need to be rebuilt and retested. Not sure if we have such a clone now, I will investigate. 

Or we would need to publish the current head of the python65 clone, but in that case, we would need even more testing
and perhaps bugfixing.
Comment 4 Jiri Kovalsky 2008-12-04 13:18:22 UTC 
Wow, such a trivial change in one configuration file implicates such a fire drill? Please investigate the clone option
as I believe that only smooth installation needs to be tested, right? We have a rule that plugins must have descriptions
no matter they are Beta. Thanks!

Comment 6 Jiri Kovalsky 2008-12-05 15:39:37 UTC 
Great, the issue has been fixed and now I can see only Python plugin. "python.options" module is installed
automatically. Can you Peter Lam confirm this to proceed to going live? Thanks!
Comment 7 Ken Frank 2008-12-05 16:17:58 UTC 
what uc is it on - can't see it after reload using 6.5 fcs or dev build of few days ago.

Comment 9 Jiri Kovalsky 2008-12-08 13:22:30 UTC 
It's staged correctly. Roberte, please publish the plugin to live Update Center. Thanks!
Comment 10 rnovak 2008-12-08 13:37:25 UTC 
I pushed the Python modules to the live UC.
Comment 11 Jiri Kovalsky 2008-12-08 15:03:07 UTC 
Yes, it's live. Thank you.
