What are the reasons you don't submit your addon to official repo?

- the once a month rule is too rigid
- I have to maintain a beta repo with daily update anyway,
- my plugin supports Eden and Frodo so I have to update two repos
- I started in Sept. so a Frodo repo wasn't viable and python wasn't even working correctly until then
- Uncertainties over what to do with repos for Frodo+ or 12.1 or whatever it will be called.

A big one is users don't ask, and install from zip works well.

cheers for your feedback emveepee!

what would you consider to be a good interval between updates?
the reason it's currently 'one month' is two fold:
- frequent updates will become quite annoying, especially if you've installed a lot of addons
- why would no you need to update frequently... is it to fix bugs or something specific to your addon (i'm not familiar with x-new)

as for the users don't ask, keep in mind a large part of the xbmc users will never visit our forum
and therefore not even know of your addon. having it in the addon repo will expose it to all xbmc users.
