This task will cover updates to Addons For Blender 2.79 I will use this task as a reference point for commits & needed changes to addons.
Whilst mostly limited to bug fixing & api changes, some context sensitive panel issues with the toolshelf addons & general code clean will apply.

)Note: in Blender 2.79 addons that use panels must be integrated into existing tabs & not use their own tab unless none can be found to suit. Context sensitivity for panels is a must, panels are not allowed to show up empty & out of context.
Summary:
Let's leave a stable & as bug free Blender 2.79 release addons as we can & look towards the future, it's only a millisecond away.

To note: I think that that priority should be given to developers that have had a long term involve & will maintain their addon into the future.
Large consideration should also be given to long standing addons from addons contrib to mark the end of this series.
Thanks.
Brendon.

hi, just an update here:
There's only a few more addons that can go into 2.79 release, I need to move on & start release notes page very soon.
The list has been compiled based on user feedback here: https://blenderartists.org/forum/showthread.php?416155-Best-Addons-ever-that-should-be-in-2-79
The Final Addons to be added this release are as follows:
The new Camera menu function (Can be extended by addons) gives these addons a nice home:
1/ Turnaround Camera by antonioya
From addons contrib: https://developer.blender.org/diffusion/BAC/browse/master/add_test_scene_elements/camera_turnaround.py
2/ Camera Rigs by Wayne Dixon, Kris Wittig
From Addons Contrib: https://developer.blender.org/diffusion/BAC/browse/master/rigging_camerarigs.py
New addon tried many times before. skins an armature with a mesh,
3/ Skinify by karab44
Task: #51036
VSE addon: under represented in addons release (currently none):
4/ Kinoraw tools by @carlospadial
I was looking these two addons from addons contrib:
https://developer.blender.org/diffusion/BAC/browse/master/sequencer_jumptocut.py
https://developer.blender.org/diffusion/BAC/browse/master/sequencer_extra_actions/init.py
I noticed there was external development here:
https://github.com/kinoraw/kinoraw_repo
I have contacted @carlospadial and we will try to review and work together quickly if this is to succeed.
5/ Auto mirror by @Lapineige
From Addons Contrib: https://developer.blender.org/diffusion/BAC/browse/master/mesh_auto_mirror.py
Task: https://developer.blender.org/T50941
6/ Advance Objects
This addon adds itself to the Add menu & Create Tab.
Currently I'm writing this addon & testing features, the base concept here is artistic tools & advanced objects:
It will draw upon addons contrib & external addons that are based on artistic merit.
7/ Curve tools from addons contrib, i have this up to date with several very useful functions, I do need to remove a bad error in 1 function but this addon is well used & respected, being rebuilt several times by different authors simply to keep the needed functionality alive.
That would be it.
hanks.
hi., still revisiting this,
Current code will be committed this week before bcon3 is announced & none after unless some main devs like to put in their own.
Keep in mind, 2.79 is a significant release, 2.8 will break & change many addons, the 2.79 addons release reflects this by representing addons developers who are active & have been active for some time & also reflecting upon user feedback.
Thanks.

hi, quick final list 1
Export Paper Model from Contrib: https://developer.blender.org/T51199
Advanced objects from Contrib: https://developer.blender.org/T51110
Kinoraw Tools from Contrib: https://developer.blender.org/T51109
Refine motion tracking by @StephenLeger
Auto Tracker by @MiikaPuustinen
From Addons Contrib:
Stored Views: very useful animation & camera tool
Render clay: Simple clay render
matlibvx light: materials lib system with small default library
curve tools: possibly if I feel it's working well & up to scratch errorwise
After which, core developers are welcome to add their own addons they feel are beneficial for this release.
What's left in the tracker & contrib will be filtered/closed/removed based on usability & then merged into final addons_contrib release.
Addons contrib will have both it's snapshot link & a custom zipped pack (with all the folder addons in zips) for easy folder/auto installs linked into the 2.79 addons release notes page.
Thanks.

Hey Brendon,
the latest version of Autotracker Addon is 0.0.9. on Github. Can we update to that version before the 2.79 release? Also the UI feels unfinished IMO. If you are interested, I already sent a pull request to fix that, but unfortunately the author does not respond since 6 weeks.
Cheers,
Christian
Hi Christian,
Sorry I didn't notice the pull request. I did merge it now. Brendon could you update it to the latest? Also could you remove Matti Kaihola from mainteners for Autotracker (blender wiki).
Thanks,
Miika
@miikap after talk with you in irc, committed latest version.
thanks.
