We should try to make things easier for plugin writers (stable api/abi, etc) instead.

I think this is another topic. For now, all I am thinking of is that you can have a single build with relevant external plugins so they make it into nightlies but being managed by an own person not necessarily a member of the C::B development team. With relevant I mean plugins that have a stable development team (so they don't get stalled) and that provide important (new) features. So I am far away from putting "everything" into contrib. In fact I want to put into contrib only whats available in a long-term period. And I believe with Eran thats the case. I would be happy if everything in contrib is a svn::external repo and managed by somebody else.

About the none-OSS - that's another story. In fact I played with wxCrafter and it has some advantages over wxSmith (though I still prefer using wxSmith myself). There is a freeware version which I would expect remains free (if not we can still remove it at that time). In the end we also have interfaces to commercial compilers like MSVC or Intel which is even worse. Should we remove those, too then?

This will be more than great

Let me add a CMakeLists.txt file so you can generate a Code::Blocks project with it (atm , I used codelite to build it)

Just share your thoughts...

I can move the plugin sources to SF and use SVN - this is not a problem at all by me ( I have no preferences for git over svn )

I think that would be the best solution for both sides unless we cannot find an agreement within the team.

ToApolytoXaos:
If wxCrafter was fully FOSS-ed would be more than convenient for many, I'm sure. But my major concern is about its license.

Does not this affects Code::Blocks's concept or are there any plans to move plugin to a more "permissive" license (business-wise that is)?

This is something that concerns me greatly and I would like some clarifications please.

You are already allowed to use closed source plugins; how do you think it can get more "permissive" license (business-wise that is)?
