Hi all, I would like to propose a new feed repository named apps.0install.net which would unify the contents from repo.roscidus.com and 0install.de/feeds. By creating a new repository with a new domain we could: - Switch to HTTPS URLs. Not strictly necessary due to 0install's GPG signature checks but makes feed URLs look more trustworthy, especially when viewed in a browser. - Use URLs ending in .xml. This would allow use to use GitHub Pages for hosting rather than requiring hosting with .htaccess support. - Fit in nicely with the naming of docs.0install.net. Using a 0install.net subdomain could also help make the feed URLs somewhat easier to memorize. We could leave all the old feeds in place but replace their content with forwarding/redirects like this: <feed src="https://apps.0install.net/category/feed.xml"/> What do you think? Is this a sensible approach? Is apps.0install.net a good name for this, or perhaps hub.0install.net or repo.0install.net? Regards Bastian
