Hi Afif,
Sorry for the delay in writing back. We talked about your request.
We're hesitant to package the plugins in the _ contrib/ _ directory,
because those are contributed by various people, and we're not yet
ready to guarantee our normal standards for those plugins.
So, at this stage, I'm afraid the best that we can recommend is what
you suggested:
> A user's workaround would be to download the plugin sources separately and
> build them manually for use with this package.
However, please do continue to communicate to us with suggestions.
The feedback is quite valuable for us.
Best wishes,
- Gene
