(In reply to Matthias Clasen from comment #0) > We should include a small number of "popular" extensions ("top five") in the > extensions package so people can use them in a supported way. I'd like to keep the (upstream) gnome-shell-extensions module about (1) classic mode (2) stuff that is useful to GNOME, but not general enough to be built-in (screenshot-window-sizer to resize windows for AppData screenshots) (3) possibly UI experiments we consider for core, but want to evaluate first (no precedents here) There is currently also (0) random stuff that was written before extensions.gnome.org was created but I'm very wary of adding anything else in that category (however there have been several removals there over the last couple of releases). Not least because there's a good chance that an extension will be worse off, because the original authors stops feeling responsible, and all I do is quickly check for obvious breakages before doing a release ... Of course packaging extensions downstream (like the background-logo one) is something else entirely, no objections there from my side ... Tested versions: gnome-shell-extension-dash-to-dock-3.14.4-9.el7.noarch gnome-shell-extension-panel-favorites-3.14.4-9.el7.noarch gnome-shell-extension-top-icons-3.14.4-9.el7.noarch Tested archs: - x86_64 - ppc64le - aarch64 Results: Extensions are present in repository and functional after installation.

We should include a small number of "popular" extensions ("top five") in the extensions package so people can use them in a supported way. The ones that I have seen suggested are: - topicons - dash-to-dock - frippery-icons - weather
