[Denemo-devel] Additions required to the AppData file

[Richard Hughes (semi-automated)]

Hi!

First, apologies for the direct email. I'm emailing you directly as you've been 
listed as the update contact in one or more AppData files. In future versions 
of the appstream-builder (the program used by distributions to merge all the 
AppData files in packages into AppStream metadata) we're going to be running a 
lot less crazy plugins. At the moment we're doing things like parsing .gir 
files, running nm on binaries and looking up things from arrays of hardcoded 
data just so we can try and work out what kudos the application deserves. This 
doesn't scale, and means the machine generating the metadata needs to have all 
kinds of extra build tools installed.

So, what do I want you to do? Basically, I would like you to:

Add the following data into denemo.appdata.xml

  <kudos>
    <kudo>ModernToolkit</kudo>
  </kudos>

Of course, you don't have to do a release with this fix straight away, and if 
you have a stable branch it would be a good thing to backport this as well. 
Nothing bad will happen if we run the automated tools with the kudos already 
set in the AppData file. If you think any of the other kudos might apply[1], 
please email me back and we can discuss any new additions.

When you've changed the file and committed, please email me back and I'll mark 
your application as completed. If you don't want to hear from me ever again 
just edit the <update_contact> in the AppData file and change it to somebody 
else. I'm not planning on emailing any of you again this year, so don't worry 
about me spamming you with even more work to do. If you don't add the manual 
<kudos> then your application will still be visible in the various software 
centers, but it may loose some of the stars it got auto-assigned.

Thanks,

Richard
