Re: [cross-project-issues-dev] [WARNING] SimRel Headed Off the Tracks

Clearly we digress here.  In any case, this bugzilla is open for removing invalid marketplace listings:

  https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=550713

Many failures are pretty clear.  The host no longer exists so clearly the listing is completely bogus...

More comments below.

So who is in charge of marketplace content?

That's unclear.  It's kind of distributed as are most things. The user create/edits their listing, but until I implemented something to test it, no one tested it. There is no established process for removal.  I think only foundation staff can remove listings. And of course, like everyone else, the foundation staff is overloaded for lack of resource...

I can't believe we don't have a way to remove non-installable features based on these reports. After all each release there is compatibility with the latest  simrel added. Who does that? How? Can community influence help with that? IMHO claimed but not actually supported compatibility should be auto removed from the market place entry. Entries with nothing installable should be removed.
I agree, but I'd hate for errors in my testing to cause a listing to be removed for bogus reasons.
As I would expect something like "Eclipse Foundation doesn't have resources to develop that" popping up in the discussion - how can the community help?  Any pointers are welcome.
I think the report pretty much does the job, assuming no errors in the testing process itself.
Wayne, I point to you with these questions as you should at least be able to ask the correct person to jump in.
