@jmazanek4ep Hi. No missunderstanding, here. We want to work on GitHub and thus our GitLab repo could be shut down. I just tried to merge since you stated "Please merge the latest into Gitlab repositories". Since everything seems to have worked fine using the git.eclipse.org repo, GitLab is no longer needed.
Hi Jakub. Sorry, have been on summer vacations. I took a look at the repositories and the one at git.eclipse.org is the one that should be migrated to GitHub. I tried to push the newest changes also to GitLab but was not allowed because I am not the author of some of those changes made in the meanwhile. So how do we proceed?
Great! Thanks for moving the website! Regarding GitLab or GitHub for the sources, the development team has decided to move to GitHub. Let me know when you are planning that move or what the next steps to move to GitHub are.
Hi Chris,
I did a first quick check and here are my findings:
So, it seems to me that your list is complete. I will double-check with Carsten, as well.
Carsten just pointed out that USS is of course not only required by MPC to show the list of favorites, but also to add plugins to your list, what in fact means giving them a star in the star rating. In my point of view that would be a bigger drawback if we lose that feature. We might offer a new API for this with MPC 3.0 but that also requires some kind of login. Till we have something like this it would only be possible to rank a plugin on the website.
FYI, the marketplace server is extremely slow again.
Concerning the simplification of the MPC calls: I will raise a ticket for that and prioritize work on this.

Despite from the server problems, it would of course make sense that the marketplace client provides a better error message in those cases. We will have a look at that.
The problem is that https://marketplace.eclipse.org/ is currently not reachable. There seems to be a general problem with this server since this has happened various times in the last week. Denis, could you have a look at this?
