Hi everyone,

GitHub added a 'pinned repositories' feature:

https://help.github.com/articles/pinning-repositories-to-your-profile/ (Couldn't find the help page for organization pages…)

I added a few repositories to get started:

- jenkins (because obviously)
- blueocean-plugin (because it's the second most starred repo, most starred plugin, and a 'sub-project' featured on the web site)
- acceptance-test-harness (because we're about automation, the ATH is awesome, and could use more visibility)

We are able to pin up to 6 repositories. Any suggestions what repositories to (not) feature? Or maybe we shouldn't use this at all? WDYT?

Daniel

remoting? I guess it's a pretty important one for Jenkins? :-)

If anything, we should put there the most active repositories. I am not
sure remoting and ATH fit into that category.

(Presuming the point of pinning the repositories is to ease the access
for developers, of course.)

I haven't done this with this in mind, but rather showcase some important/popular ones.

Established developers will have bookmarks or URL autocompletion for the stuff they regularly work on. And the obscure stuff that nobody can ever find like extras-executable-war shouldn't be highlighted here.

I don't know. GitHub doesn't keep track of pinning in the audit log. I asked support about it a while back when weird plugins were showing up there.

I removed it.

why not have a "Plugin of the Month" program and pin it accordingly? :)

There is no even dynamic stats for recommended plugins, plugin of month will be very subjunctive.
