Hello,

I also have to agree with Gabriel on this one, the polcies for Harbour need to be made much more clearer. At the moment it is not inspiring working of Sailfish development due to the store issues. I would expect that Jolla would indeed need as many developers as only possible onboard, and to aid that, the Harbour rules needs to be made clearer / substantially more relaxed. More native applications are indeed needed as the Android integration currently seems to be everything else than optimal.

Ohh nice, I planed to use DBUS for few features, good that I have not implemented a lot so far.


Why will DBUS also be restricted? There are just a small amount to nearly no, save to use APIs. There are nearly no offical APIs, just some Nemo middle ware stuff that works - maybe, but is not allowed at harbour.


What about device feedback, what about notifications, what about sharing options, what about deamons, now also DBUS will be restricted. DBUS was an option to work around missing notifications. :-/


I'm sure it's difficult and hard for a small team, but hey come on you wanted it. And if you can't solve/realise things atm, be open and different - talk to use, tell your plans, show what can be expected when. Talk to your devs, maybe let's discuss ideas, make plans together. But don't be shy and say nothing and came in the next moment with any - positive or negative suprise.


Gabriel.

Hi there, habour supporters and moderators.

Please, please, really PLEASE do update your https://harbour.jolla.com/faq AND MAKE CLEAN RULES what is restricted and what is not.

This is not the game where we should guess your imaginary rules.

This is just ridiculous to submit apps, wait for 4 days and then get response that app is rejected with new , since "This application uses a DBus API which should not be used by 3rd party applications, and will be restricted soon.".

How the hell I should know what will be restricted and will not?

If you not sure about anything at harbour in the future, create white list of what is allowed, like qml imports and link libraries.

Do you understand, that it is impossible to create any usefull and complex application, which is not "a one-page + one-button + haha-look-at-my-cover-it-is-awesome" when you does not share your plans for future and does not supply strict rules?
All your ecosystem depends on this.

Regards,
Basil.
