Hey,

First of all:

I'm using Gnome 3 on Archlinux and I really like it! Thanks to everyone involved in the Gnome(-Shell) development for this great software. :)

I also like that new functionality can be added easily in Gnome-Shell using _javascript_ and the Extensions-Feature. I know there is a git repository for extensions (http://live.gnome.org/GnomeShell/Extensions), but I prefere sites like http://www.webup8.org to get more infos about new extensions. Gnome 3 seems to be designed to be also usable for unexperienced users/"non-geeks" so I wonder if there will be a website for extensions (like for Firefox: https://addons.mozilla.org or Chrome: https://chrome.google.com/webstore ) with screenshots, descriptions, installation notes or a comment-function etc. in the future...

In my opinion, extensions are a great way to interest more people for the gnome desktop and on the other side also a good starting point for developers, so I think a website - e.g. in the style of gnome3.org - would be cool.

Are there any plans for something like this? (Or maybe a "showcase"- / "webstore"-area in gnome-tweak-tool?)

Yes. I'll provide more details when I have something usable, but this is precisely what I'm working on at the moment.
 

Greetings from Germany,

Sven
