Re: 3rd party app ppa
That's a possibility. Let's all take a breath and remember that AppCenter
is a ways off still from being a full service, and right now we're focusing
on getting Luna finally out the door.
After Luna's release, we can discus how we want to handle third-party apps
in greater detail. Just a moonshot idea: host our own repos for it so we
can have paid software as well. ;)
