Hello Massimo,

I agree that it would be cool to have the possibility to add additional lists to the official one. I have this on my radar, however we can not do everything at once Currently there is a possibility to override official list with the custom one via "More.." -> "Set UppHub URL..". Did you try this option? If yes and if it doesn't work make sure that .json is formatted similar to our official nests.json file.

Yep, I'm manually appending "official" json to mine, on a local text file, but that's not optimal.
My idea would be to add more lines in URL dialog, and to give "precedence" to last ones.
So if somebody want to test some local patches, it's enough to add an url pointing to local fork and, when the package is ready for deployment, remove it.
For exampe, if

https://github.com/ultimatepp/UppHub/blob/main/nests.json]nests.json

contains 'Uniq' package and I want to test some local changes, I could add a line like this :

https://github.com/ultimatepp/UppHub/blob/main/nests.json]nests.json
https://veneto.gitlab.com/UppHub/my_local_nests.json

which could contain 'Uniq' package too, which would take over the official one.

In case of your packages. We ported them, because we were not sure you are still interested in contributing to U++. I think we should migrate to yours package version for our official nests.json. Could you give me all packages that are already in UppHub, but belongs to you and are available on https://gitlab.veneto.com/upphub?page=1. I will replace links.

Please, not for now, I'm still quite busy and don't know how well will I be able to maintain them.
Maybe on next year things will change.

Please use always U++ as a name of our framework. Ultimate++ is deprecated. So, in description "Ultimate++ (www.ultimatepp.org) UppHub packages" should be replaced with "U++ (ultimatepp.org) UppHub packages".

Ok.

Moreover, did you consider different name for your group on GitLab? UppHub seems like official repository/registry and in this case it is not. This group is dedicated to your packages. For example Inaki has Anboto organization, maybe you can have something similar like MaxPackagesForUpp, MaxPackages, MaxUppPackages, MPackages, PowerPackages, PowerUppPackages, etc.. It is up to you what you will choose, but UppHub as a group name should be avoided in this case.

well, gitlab.veneto.com is my private server, so the /UppHub group there should not bring problems, IMHO.
I want to keep my code on my server and not on public ones.

Ciao
