Awesome, thanks. Any chance you could write a patch for the spec document? It's hosted here: https://github.com/hughsie/appdata-website -- probably just adding the file and adding an entry in the FAQ section is enough. > Don't quite > understand what the relation between AppStream and AppData is.) My AppStream compose tools do something like this: for each package in distro: extract .desktop files extract .appdata.xml files write appstream.xml file xmlmerge all the appstream.xml's files together into a master appstream.xml and optionially gzip it So really, the data in the AppData is used to make the AppStream data more complete. AppData is just another data provider just like the .desktop file.
