List of desired package manager plugins for OneGet #77
Description
OneGet is a package management aggregator.
In order to fill out the goal of comprehensive package management in Windows, we need to come up with a list of package providers (types of existing package managers) that we'd like to see plugins created for OneGet for.
The list starts off fairly easy, but we need to get as much of these captured as possible.
