We plan to launch the revamped http://maemo.org/downloads this week. We
are just polishing the last details.

Some things application developers need to know to be prepared:

- The main page will feature OS2007/Bora software as default, but not
for long. The OS2008 category will be already activated and ready to
receive submissions. This will be the default page as soon as the N810
is out. fyi tablet users will see apps for the OS they are using
automatically.

- Screenshots are widely featured in the downloads main page, category
listings and searches. If you app doesn't have a screenshot it will
feature a gray rectangle with an "?".

- Functional install file is the main criteria to sort listings. If you
provide it your app will go up. If you don't your app will go down.

- Stable / Beta / Alpha quality will be printed in bold in the
application pages. Make sure the quality level assigned corresponds to
the last version uploaded.
