let's just say that the infrastructure is already there, so why create another one? Developers have to take advantage of it insteas, I'm pointing at MeeCatalogue

There is also apps4meego but the future of this is uncertain. (Currently it seems to be down)
On the other hand a full-fledged store requires manpower we don't have, we can barely promote packages to maemo 5 extras as is. So I think it's better to have a simpler system that works than a complicated one that doesn't.
So even if a4m was secure, we maybe wouldn't be able to run it anyway. It's a pity to lose it, but I'd sacrifice it any day to save more important things.

So let me get this right.. you would like an app store based on apps made by the community ?.. A collection of all apps made for the n9/n900/n950 right ?...
I will admit this could come in handy..

BTW, is the apps.formeego.com site source somewhere ? Maybe a community maintained instance could be spawned provided enough people are interested in investing their time and resources in hosting & improving it.

I mean.. a Community Store could/should have also Beta versions, and other kind of levels, that Nokia Store can't offer!
in MeeCatalog there are very very very few apps..
