Requested plugins
gedit-plugins is far from complete. There are many useful plugins that still need to be written. If you want to join in don't hesitate and either contact us via email or IRC (#gedit at irc.gimp.org).
Inclusion
If you developed a plugin which you think would be a candidate for inclusion in gedit-plugins please send an email to either JesseVanDenKieboom, SteveFrécinaux, or the gedit mailing list stating what the plugin does, where it is available and why you think it should be included in gedit-plugins.
Download
The source tarball for released versions of gedit-plugins are available at ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/sources/gedit-plugins/. Binary .DEB packages for gedit-plugins are available for Ubuntu from the package repositories. Other packages (RPM etc) may also be available from your Linux distro's package repositories, be sure to check before compiling your own version.
