dmj726hello17:00
dmj726are we ready to begin :)17:03
highvoltageanyone on IRC?17:04
dmj726yep, I can hear you!17:04
dscasselhighvoltage: Yup. :)17:05
dpmnotes at http://summit.ubuntu.com/uds-q/meeting/20546/community-p-appdevelopers-external-outreach17:05
dmj726I have published one thing through the app portal.17:07
dmj726What about finding ways to spotlight successful apps that are already in the app store?17:09
dmj726Showing apps doing well on Ubuntu would likely attract developers developing elsewhere17:09
mhall119dmj726: we have another session about ways to promote the success of apps17:10
dscasselWe need success stories.17:10
dmj726mhall119: which session is that?17:10
dmj726I just figured that that would help get people to jump on the bandwagon17:11
mhall119dmj726: http://summit.ubuntu.com/uds-q/meeting/20417/community-q-app-promotion/ and http://summit.ubuntu.com/uds-q/meeting/20415/community-q-upstream-evangelism/17:12
dmj726mhall119: cool, will be interested in those from this: https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/zhackers-volume1-usc/17:14
dmj726Getting onto Ubuntu isn't that hard17:16
dmj726either from linux or windows17:16
dmj726we need new apps17:16
dmj726it's not a big problem having an app available from a ppa or third party repo17:17
dmj726the big problem is apps that aren't available at all17:17
dscasselConvincing Unity3D (the game platform) to port to Ubuntu would help tonnes.17:17
dscassel(although that might confuse people. :)17:18
dscasselIn my exprience, there are plenty of developers (mostly web devs) who are running Ubuntu.17:19
dscasselThey're not writing apps, though.17:19
dmj726dscassel: really?17:20
dscasseldmj726: Yeah. Locally, in dev groups, it's the second platform after mac. Windows is 3rd.17:20
dmj726dscassel: Given recent trends in Ubuntu app development, it sounds like they could be an easy sell on native apps using webkit-gtk and userwebkit17:20
dmj726Novacut is a good example for how to do this17:21
dscasseldmj726: Yeah! That's what I want to hear. I want to know enough to know how to pitch that to them.17:21
dmj726dscassel: Talk to jderose (Jason DeRose) and especially JamesMR (James Raymond)17:22
dscasselI have a side project I don't have enough time for where I want to put send a little game on developer.ubuntu.com so I can show people how it's done.17:22
dscasseldmj726: Will do. Thanks. :)17:22
dmj726We need a good success stories businesswise17:24
dmj726need good advertising story17:24
dmj726Humble indie bundle (generally 25% of their money)17:25
dmj726adam savage likes linux17:25
dmj726^^ mythbuster17:25
dmj726Making it easy to get new releases of software into released versions of ubuntu is a big issue17:36
dmj726so you shouldn't need an alpha version of ubuntu for GIMP 2.817:37
