This document outlines the benefits and process for getting a WordPress plugin listed on the WordPress.org repository. Key benefits include getting more exposure for the plugin, encouraging quality code through reviews, and allowing for version control and updates. The process involves developing a decent plugin, creating a readme file that passes validation, submitting for review, and uploading the code to the subversion repository. Additional recommendations are making the plugin translation ready, adding a banner and screenshots, and providing support.
