## # state:

Is used in conjunction with [version:](wiki/version) to mark the maturity or activation of a plugin.

     # state: stable

Other typicaly values are `beta`, `alpha`, `testing`, `obsolete` etc.  
Or if used for activation states: `off`, `disabled`, `hidden` etc.

(This field was originally called status. And that's the more common designation. This is kind of a post-rationalization, but for the context of plugin management it makes to double as indicator for the effective `state` as well.)
