Right - forgot to add my application to the Ubuntu Touch store - thus 
the problems spewing errors about paid apps and PPA's to me...

Resubmitted it to the right place, and get another error:

"The uploaded package name (aussieweather) does not use your namespace 
(com.ubuntu.developer.mreese)"

So tried updating the app to aussieweather.mreese rather than 
com.ubuntu.developer.mreese in line with the changed package name 
structure (which I love, by the way). What am I doing wrong? Is there a 
way to change my namespace to mreese from com.ubuntu.developer.mreese? 
The point is to have smaller package names, as outlined by Martin 
Albesetti a few days back. How do I change this now on my account, short 
of registering a new one?

Thanks,

Mitchell
