Greetings,
Is it my impression or the "normal" publishing of Add-Ons is halted/dramaticly decreased? I have this "strange" feeling that Add-Ons are not being upgraded so offently as usual nor new ones... or are they being published somewhere else besides this forum?

Not that I have an answer, but just to chime in;
I think the current situation with OSC4 have made some people wait to see where to invest their time. At the same time, I think a lot of people are learning the benefit of the certified addons for Phoenix, and enjoy how easy it is not dealing with something that works and is supported. Besides, DIY has never been easier for a lot of common things, than it is now, and thus the need for uploading things have decreased. I mean, if you don't want to ask for the customers' gender, it's just a few clicks. Do you want additional info? Just copy a module and change a few words, and you even have the User-guide to help you

Is there a plan for a pool, where addons can be published? Or shall it be forum-based?

I feel the same. On the old forum people were doing their own thing updating addons to be used on the latest version, but very few people actually updated the addon. Hopefully that will change here, and people will help to improve what is available for others. I did mention it to a few people doing it, who said they would package it up, but never did.

Obviously we have a diferent definition of "every day".
So far, despite 2 or 3 language packs, only Raiwa posted his update add-ons. 14 Add-ons total since February.
Am I the only one "seeing things" here, or...

You are welcome to code (or have coded) add-ons and upload them.
Without any "give", there can be no "take".

Do note that I have spend the last few days updating Supporters Codes addons. I have (so far) checked 53 addons to make sure they work in v1.0.8.0 and update them if they don't. I have about 15 more to go.
There is no `public face` to that as my addons don't get shared publicly as they have been, historically, what has helped to keep the project alive for the last 6 years.
