+<PRE>Hi,
+
+I know -dev team doesn't exist yet, but in spite of that: some of us may be
+needed.
+
+Yesterday in the packaging meeting[1], misc and Stormi talked about the 3days
+they went to a Cross-Distro App Installer Meeting[2]. As far as I understood,
+our involvement in AppStream[3] is 4 part:
+ - mageia-app-db would like to use the metadata to display on the site.
+ - sophie would like some of the metadata too.
+ - mageia could work on making packagekit support work (it does not replace
+rpm or urpmi in any way, it is cross-distro and just delegates the work to
+urpmi (in our case).)
+ - mageia would then package AppStream in the distro. (Nothing is being said
+as being used by default: Note that AppStream only does Applications, while
+eg: rpmdrake installs packages).
+
+Since this concerns mostly packaging, it has had a start-discussion in the
+packagers' meeting.
+
+However:
+ - mageia-app-db (Stormi: PHP) would like some help.
+ - sophie (Nanar: Perl) would like some help.
+ - packagekit support (misc: Perl) would need to be finalized.
+( requires intimate knowledge of perl-URPM )
+ - someone will have to package AppStream eventually.
+
+
+afaik shikamaru would help with sophie, so i think that is covered.
+
+So this leaves:
+ - PHP for mageia-app-db
+ - Perl-URPMI related stuff for packagekit support (i might have some time for
+this, not sure yet)
+
+Now then, if there is anyone from -dev team who is inclined to help out,
+please, tell us :-)
+
+Regards,
+
+Maarten (aka AL13N)
