[Bug 786127] Re: Software-center should include more partner/commercial software applications

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

This report describes a valid general problem in Ubuntu. But it does not
describe a specific problem that could ever be fixed in the USC code.

I gave a talk last year on the various things we need to get more
commercial applications in Ubuntu.
<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GT5fUcMUfYg> Some of the needed
components have their own projects on which you can report specific
bugs, for example the Packaging Guide <https://launchpad.net/ubuntu-
packaging-guide> and the developer portal
<https://launchpad.net/ubuntudeveloperportal>.

In USC itself, there are many things that could be changed to make it
more attractive to application vendors: for example, better categories,
more useful recommendations, preview videos, and rating charts. But
those will not all be implemented at the same time, and therefore should
be (and are) tracked separately.

** Changed in: software-center (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Invalid
