I actually started working on a > gnome-software on my own before seeing this. Yes, I am actively working on this :-) We will need AppStream data in Debian before we can use it, though. That's why this package is currently delayed, I have a GSoC student working on an implementation of DEP-11 (the AppStream stuff for Debian) right now, and I am working on a libappstream port of GNOME-Software, enabling it to instantly work on Debian. Alternatively, libappstream-glib can be extended to support DEP-11 - we'll see which option is better, in future (there is some behind-the-scenes disagreemend whether using Xapian as database is a good idea, or if loading XML directly is better).

Yes, that was my plan anyway, I wanted to bring this up later on the GNOME-team list, when DEP-11 is implemented and if have something GNOME-Software-ish to show. Without DEP-11/AppStream data, GNOME-Software is not really usable, and the app-install-data package is something planned to be killed in Jessie - that's why I didn't upload my work yet.
