appdata: Add developer ID #1290

Closed yakushabb closed 3 months ago

yakushabb commented 3 months ago

Flathub requires a developer tag and developer ID. Also Appstream decided to use rdns structure for developer ID.

It allows reverse-dns IDs like sh.cozy, de.geigi or Fediverse handle (like @user@example.org)

A developer tag with a name child tag must be present. Only one developer tag is allowed and the name tag also must be present only once in untranslated form.

<developer id="tld.vendor">
  <name>Developer name</name>
</developer>

The element should have a id property, containing a unique ID to identify the component developer / development team. It is recommended to use a reverse-DNS name, like org.gnome or io.github.ximion, or a Fediverse handle (like @user@example.org) as ID to achieve a higher chance of uniqueness.
