Re: AppStream / DEP-11 support now available in the Debian archive
Hi Matthias,
congratulation for this release !
In the upstream-metadata project (https://wiki.debian.org/UpstreamMetadata) we
document some information, some of which is redundant with what is now found in
AppStream, and some of which is not.
For example, we document bibliographic reference to the scientific litterature
where a given sofwtware has been published. This particular data has been the
driving need behind the creation of upstream-metadata project. But the moment,
I do not have enough free time to take care of the upstream-metadata project
properly.
Given that the scope of AppStream has grown, do you think that it could be
further extended to support the kind of information that we distribute in the
debian/upstream/metadata files ?
Have a nice day,
(Please Cc me, I am not subscribed).
