other than the missing file it looks ok to me

would be good to get another check though

Added also media folder.

I am wondering if we even need these manifest files for core components and with the move of media files if they should be in the manifest either

Yes the extension manifests should be in place. Technically, we don't need them, but the core package shouldn't be taking liberties as it relates to extension structure that a distributed extension can't.

And the media folder? The same?

@laoneo did you have to create this manually - if so I am happy to takeover so you can concentrate on developer stuff

For me it reflects the installed state of an extension which includes the media folder and com_content has a media folder. From my understanding an extension dev should be able to take it as example and the manifest with the media folder is part of it.

I can remove it if you really want but I think it is not a bad idea to leave it in.

@brianteeman yes I'm doing them by hand. If you want you can take over the task when we get this one merged. But I would wait about the agreement of the media folder.

When you decide on media let me know and i can get this done

Not convinced about the media tag - but not sceptical enough to block progress here
