Greetings,
There has been talk on maemo-devel today about the wiki-based application catalog at maemo.org getting large and unwieldy. Although the itt software catalog never quite took off, I think there are enough apps out there that a list is no longer the right interface to view them. I think the itt catalog is a great candidate to fill that need, but it's not quite finished...
As near as I can tell, you can't update an existing application. The category tree is too large for the current number of applications. The search interface is overly complicated and buried at the bottom of the main screen. Lots of little niggles.
What's the skinny? Is the software catalog completely custom, or is it based on some existing cataloging package? Is it possible to get some code to hack on to try to flesh it out and make this _the_ place to find 770 software? If not is it worth posting bug reports and mockups here, or is the catalog in a stable state right now and not open for hacking?
Thanks,
Mike
