Import Linux metadata file here

[Guilherme]

Hi,

As you might know, our Flatpak package ships with this metadata file, which contains many information about the app.

So, I wanted to ask what are your thoughts on moving that file here? It’s not a file format exclusive to the Flatpak package, so other packaging formats (snap, deb, etc.) will likely benefit from it as well.

Flathub contributors/collaborators recommend that this file is maintained on the upstream project, too.

The only thing you’ll need to before a new release, is to add a new <release> tag under the existing <releases> tag, like this.

Let me know what you think!

Hi Guilherme

It is totally fine with me. Where do you think I should locate this file? Just right in the root of the repo?

I’ve just released version 4.4.0 and, at the moment, I have imported the metadata file into my repository (at root level). Let me know if you think this is the right location. Thanks!

That’s perfect, thanks.
