Description Jiri Kovalsky 2015-03-27 11:13:59 UTC 
Due to bugs like [1] and to make verification process more reliable and convenient it would be good if each plugin would have its own module catalog.xml file such as [2] for each NetBeans version it supports. This would be then the required way how Plugin Verifiers should install plugins when processing their verification requests.
