Request: publish extension in open-vsx.org
gdelfino opened this issue · 1 comments
VS Code is very popular in part for being open source. But if you try to install the vscode-wolfram extension in anything other than a Microsoft compiled VS Code you find that it is unavailable. This is because extensions published on the Microsoft Marketplace are prohibited from being used from any other products:
https://github.com/VSCodium/vscodium/blob/master/DOCS.md#extensions--marketplace
The solution is to also publish the extension in the Open VSX Registry:
My understanding is the this would only require signing and an additional agreement:
https://www.eclipse.org/legal/open-vsx-registry-faq/#faq-4
Any chance of this getting done? I see that there are now 2330 extension on open-vsx.org so this seems like a good idea.
No guarantees, but we'll look into it.
