Re: [ jEdit-devel ] to abandon clipper plugin?

[Jarek C. <jar...@po...>]

Actually for all deprecated plugins we should also take care of the 
information on jedit plugins page. They should not appear under their 
category nor under "all plugins". They should have a separate category 
"deprecated", so that people have easier access to active plugins. I'll 
take care of that, unless anyone else wants to do it.
