Hi Luke, (cc'ing PSC list)

Not sure which plugin you are talking about.

But in my view a 'nagging'-screen to pay for development would be a reason to 
remove a plugin from the repo.

(Personally I'd even go further and also remove plugins from the qgis repo 
which only can be used in combination with paid services (they can host the 
plugin theirselves))

There has also been a plugin spamming plugin devs with mails recently...

Maybe update the rules on which you can put plugins in the official repo?

Regards,

Richard Duivenvoorde

Well obviously I can modify the code which is what I did to get around the 
issue, but I wouldn’t think that a plugin should be officially posted to the 
plugins repo if it times out its usage.

*Subject:* [QGIS-Developer] Plugin constantly asking for donations

I understand asking for donations to help in keeping a plugin up to date, but I 
have downloaded a plugin that after either a certain time or a certain number 
of mouse clicks, I now get a popup with every single mouse click that asks for 
a donation.  That seems to defeat the purpose of open source.  Highly annoying. 
 I can’t even fully evaluate the plugin for my needs.
