dmj726hi all17:01
dmj726Hi, bilal17:02
bilalhi dmj72617:03
vibhavA good way to advertise might be to show the Application's Integration with Unity, if any17:04
dmj726I think it's important to get the word out outside of the software center.17:04
vibhavsomething like "Share for $SOCIAL_NETWORK"17:05
vibhavgwibber might be of some use for that17:05
dmj726yes, perhaps also find ways to expand coverage of new Ubuntu apps in news sites17:05
vibhavAlso, Integration with Google+ and twitter hashtags sounds good17:10
dmj726What about promoting a commercial app that is also libre?17:10
dmj726Is the banner only chosen by internal processes or could developers nominate an app?17:14
vibhavNo Idea17:16
bilaldmj726: I'm going to speak that here17:17
bilalone sec17:17
vibhavWhat about an option to "Request an application in the Software Center"?17:21
mptdmj726, Canonical's Consumer Applications team currently chooses the promoted applications17:22
dmj726thanks mpt17:22
vibhavCant that process also involve the community as well?17:22
mptSometimes (as in the case of the EA applications) it can't be discussed in advance because the applications haven't been announced)17:22
dmj726I've been quite curious about this since submitting https://myapps.developer.ubuntu.com/dev/apps/699/17:22
mpt(Sorry I can't listen in on this session, I'm in another one right now)17:23
dmj726It would be good to have older apps get some love too17:27
vibhavdmj726: +117:28
dmj726A big issue on the Apple app store is that older apps get lost in the crowd17:28
dmj726We want apps to stick around long term17:28
dmj726Perhaps some monthly awards for apps17:29
dmj726to get them exposure17:29
dmj726could also be a news item to report on sites17:29
dmj726We want to encourage sites outside of the couple Ubuntu sites to start coving apps on Ubuntu to make them more viable and increase developer awareness too.17:30
vibhavWhat about adding "Report a Bug in the application" Directly in the Software Center?17:33
mptThat's not what USC is for, but in the Gnome session I raised the possibility of a Contribution indicator menu17:36
mptwhich would (amongst other things) let you report a bug on anything you see, xkill-style17:36
vibhavah17:36
vibhavWhat about, reuqest an app. to be added to the USC?17:37

udsbotuuds-gb-c: 1 minute left in this session!17:43
vibhavBut we want to bring FOSS to the world :)17:43
dmj726vibhav: I wrote a paid app that is FOSS17:43
dmj726with the paid part supporting future efforts17:44

vibhavdmj726: Cant access app17:44
vibhavOnly the owner of an application can do that.17:45
dmj726(bug in the site labels it as proprietary despite the cc-by-sa license)17:45
dmj726vibhav: sorry, wrong link17:45
