Contributed plugins have been a great thing to have, but a thorn in the 
side to manage for a few reasons I've opined about over the years.  The 
biggest issue being that most of the contributed plugins don't get changed 
much, but some of them (comments in particular) are undergoing a lot of 
changing right now.  So we need a distribution method that covers both 
bases without someone releasing a new contributed plugins pack every 
couple of weeks.

To that end, last night I moved everything around in SVN so that the 
contributed plugins are organized in the same hierarchical structure as 
the categories of the plugin registry.  Additionally, I added some text to 
each of the contributed plugins stating that they come in the contributed 
plugin pack, that the pack doesn't get released very often, and that you 
can also find versions in the SVN repository.

My question is two-fold.  First, what problems do you PyBlosxom users have 
when using contributed plugins?  Second, is the "new" distribution method 
good enough?
