This includes downloading the packages etc. The entire directory is about 600-700MB here. The icon and xml tars are quite small too, less than an MB each. You can find all the files here[1]. A screenshot or two from gnome-software are also included[2][3]. I'm yet to figure out if this can be automated, so that it can be triggered after the builds. I'll dig up a little more. Should I file an RFE with on bugzilla for this already? It should be a simple enough patch for the spec.

2013/10/22 David Timms <dtimms(a)iinet.net.au&gt; Hi David, Did you tried the process described here ? That been said I don't expect to bundle the appstream data into rpmfusion-free-release or the nonfree counterpart. So I think it could be made as a separate review if it does worth to implement this by f20 or to wait for f21 so that can be properly handled from the infra side. I would say that the implementation really must take into accounts third parties vendors, not only one third party repository like us. And not only the vendor ... 2cts There is probably few apps compatible yet in our repo. Is there a list ? Thx for the reminder. Worth to report an infrastructure bug. Nicolas (kwizart)

Until upstream makes a new release that includes the appdata file, we can just include them as SOURCEX in our spec files. In any case, the appdata for gnome-software needs to be generated so gnome-software can list applications available in the repository. I've already run the process once, as reported in my earlier mail. The results are here[1]. If appdata files aren't available, it uses information from the desktop files, but this isn't complete, since it lacks screenshots and a proper description most of the time. I'd be happy to package this up and make it available in the repos for F20, until we can set up infra to automatically generate the info as Nicholas mentions.
