Target group of the ShowCase application are End Users. It will be a kind of Gambas3 software center for Gambas3 applications that can be easily installed (like click a button and provide a password and yes it installs). And it will be mainly for Orca, but will be used in GambOS as well. And Orca aims at end users and so does ShowCase. But I'm thinking about a SourceCase as well (ShowCase spin off), that does the same but with source packages to be downloaded instead of applications installed. That would be aimed at developers and be a of good use pre installed on GambOS. But both GambOS and ShowCase are in Alpha stage so the SourceCase might have to wait for a while...
