Not on apps.o.c. Nor on the build in App store in ownCloud - there were no real conditions (I might be wrong - but then, point me to documentation of a process - I can't find anything). > Also I fail to see any problem with getting an app in there - you just have > to register any upload.

The 'approved' tag should be given out to apps and then they can appear in the build in app store in ownCloud - but there is not and never really was a process for that. It has been done kind of ad-hoc at the past, I think by Frank, perhaps also by others. That is the thing we have to fix - create clear conditions and find people who can check them. > > Sorry, it is frustrating to see our new, good looking App store so empty > > :( > There is a new app store?

With the app store I mean the build in App manager in ownCloud - it isn't 'new' but improved with the categories and all that... But it shouldn't be (near) empty ;-) On apps.owncloud.com nothing changed - it is and always has been almost entirely open (only face or data-stealing apps are removed). You can find a issue for what needs to change in the app store and a pull request for documentation of the process in github. It is very rough so I won't link to it for now but if you really want you can look for it.
