Most plugins in the Atlassian Plugin Libraries are free and open source, developed and donated by our community of generous plugin developers. Some other plugins in these libraries were written by Atlassian developers to serve some specific purpose (or because the developer wanted to try something new) but have not yet been brought up to the quality standards we'd prefer. Most of these plugins work well, and provide interesting and useful enhancements to our products. However, because we have not yet been able to ensure these plugins meet the quality standards outlined below, Atlassian does not offer support for them. And in the event that they inadvertently cause problems with our software, our support techs may ask you to uninstall them. We've decided to begin offering support for some of the most widely used and most useful plugins, even ones that weren't created by Atlassian. We've spent some time putting them through their paces and improving the quality of the plugins so that we feel they are reliable. You'll be able to recognize these "certified" plugins by looking for the "Atlassian Supported" icon on their homepage. We're starting with a small list of plugins, but we will be increasing the number of supported plugins over time. Stay tuned for more announcements. So, if I have a problem or question about a plugin, what should I do? Supported Plugins

Is there anything that plugin developers outside of Atlassian can do in the development of their plugins to help make this idea feasible? Obviously, poorly written plugins may not make good candidates for "absorption", and licensing could be an issue, so some plugin writing recommendations might help if this were a possibility.

That's exactly our intention here. As you'll note, quite a few of the Supported Plugins, Like ToC and Chart, began as community projects. As far as guidelines go, the ones posted above are the best place to start. If your plugin can meet all those criteria, it will be much more likely that we can offer support for it in the future. That said, the other two things to think about are licensing and usefulness. Be sure you license your plugin with a inclusion-friendly license (we like BSD). Also, we have limited resources, so we're only going to invest our time in plugins that are useful to a broad spectrum of our users.
Cheers,
Jonathan

This might help you direct your efforts by having extra feedback on the more useful plugins (as well as enticing developers of popular plugins to work toward your Supported guidelines).
I would like to suggest a delicious bookmark import plugin

Where can I find more information on how I can help insure all the Atlassian supported plugin criteria are met - Reference "what does it take for a plugin to be Atlassian Supported?" above?
For example, how do I get a plugin project in the "Developer Network SVN", get a new Bamboo project, or what is the minimum code coverage required? A little more detail on next steps would be helpful.
I'll investigate each bullet more and work on my business case with IT
