I would recommend it be the reverse of a domain name that you own (e.g., com.commonsware.whatever). That is what the com.* convention refers to: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_package#Package_naming_conventions > #2: What do I do about the app already released as a "com.android" > package?

AFAIK, the Market will not accept an upgrade version using a different package name. You will need to release it as a new app. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://twitter.com/commonsguy _The Busy Coder's Guide to *Advanced* Android Development_ Version 1.1 Available! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
