Changes to application submission

 

Hi,

We just deployed a change to the way applications are submitted. Instead
of the developer having to fill out lots of information that's already
in the package (like the package name, description etc.) and things that
they can easily get wrong (like the version number, the architectures
etc.) they will now be extracted from the file that they provide. This
should make the process smoother and quicker.

Given that it's new code there may be some issues though. These will
often be errors at the "scanning" step, or the pre-filled inforamtion
being missing/wrong as you fill out the forms. If you find such an issue
you please file a bug using
https://bugs.launchpad.net/developer-portal/+filebug, and let me know
about it. Until it is fixed you can use the link on
https://myapps.developer.ubuntu.com/dev/click-apps/ called "New
application without package", which will use all the old code.

Thanks,

James
