Doug,

What third-party plugins are you waiting for? Have you contacted the
authors? If they are around, they are encouraged to add their wares to:

http://www.gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php?title=Plugins

which will appear on the page:

http://www.gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php?title=Third-party_Plugins

However, anyone who wants to bring those up to date and list them there is
encouraged to do so.

Thanks!

-Doug
