AppStream need more SNS function

[Leslie Zhai]

Hi Matthias,

Thanks for your reply :)

QJade is very young, it is Qt5 frontend with PackageKit-Qt migrated to 
Qt5.2.x it use Qt5.2.x C++ && QML.

I do not like Ubuntu, so I google with 'Bodega', is it 
http://appbodega.com/ UbuntuKylin`s AppStore cheap copy the UI of 
appbodega... SHAME!!!

I wanna choose Drupal http://drupal.org a PHP CMS, and I am able to 
develop AppStore module for it to provide JSON APIs for QJade, Apper and 
other AppStores.


Regards,
Leslie Zhai <xiang.zhai at i-soft.com.cn>
