Please consider writing and installing an AppData file with the
application description and some screenshots, else Dillo looks really
bad in the GNOME and KDE Software Centers. We'd love to showcase more
applications, but without the extra data file we can't. See
http://people.freedesktop.org/~hughsient/appdata/ for details; thanks!

What happens if I don't ship this file?

The GNOME Software Center currently shows a nag message that the upstream
project doesn't ship the additional data. Additionally, we will penalize apps
that do not ship the extra metadata by showing them lower in the search
results.

BTW, I use DWM or Dynamic Window Manager from suckless.org. ;-)

Hi,
Does somebody have experience with this?
I got the exact same mail for another small project as well. I think
it's some sort of mass-mailing to get more projects to provide
these AppData files.

Cheers,
Johannes
