I have some questions about apps.formeego.org, which weren't answered by anyone so far. See starting from here:

In short, why can't dependencies on libraries be specified in it?

I am unable to 'rate' a downloaded App. Already have discovered some useful feedback for the developer so would like to share that too.

Short answer: To prevent a dependency mess, we started with 'clean' builds against the sdk only.
Longer answer: Of course we should try to harness the power of shared libraries etc. To prevent people from randomly uploading dependencies and not caring if it breaks other packages, we need to come up with a way to do this properly.
My idea is to have a separate repository where shared libraries are managed (maybe even with a staging repository where we can test breakage when new versions are introduced). We can go for package maintainers per package or a group of interested people who manage the repository.
For this to not become a mess, we need to have a clear policy and good communication between maintainers.
I intend to come up with at proposal on the wiki this week. I'll ask for input/ideas after that. And of course ask for volunteers

I was asking more about the difference between Harmattan and Nemo in regards to what system packages will be expected by default (since you mentioned SDK packages) and how the proposed repositories where additional dependencies will be added later are going to work out in practice for both (since apps.formeego.org was intended to cater for both systems). Just an example, let's say boost will be added to the new repository. So it'll need to be maintained for all proposed targets? (Harmattan & Nemo at least?).
