Hello all,

As you may have heard, Apple just released the new "Mac App Store", which is 
basically like the iPhone App Store, except for Mac. I would like to put 
Wesnoth on it, and I think as the Mac packager, I'm the ideal candidate to do 
so. Previously, Apple's software listing was a big source of publicity for 
Wesnoth on Mac, but the App Store is replacing the software listing, so not 
being on it will mean a loss in publicity.

I haven't put anything on the Mac App Store yet, but from what I've read it's 
not very difficult, and I've signed up for an account already. I was thinking 
it could be priced similarly to Wesnoth on iOS ($1-5), and I'm hoping to keep 
something like 10% of the profit myself. The reason to charge for it, is that 
it will basically be an easy way for people to donate, and they'll be paying 
for convenience - we WILL still have the Mac binary on the website for free. 
The reason for me keeping a percentage, is that it is a bit of work to manage 
something like this, and it costs $100/year as well.

Any objections?
