package and update app store binaries, plus documenting
Rationale: We asked the public to send proposals, so let's discuss
in public first. We can move to private if needed.
I just checked the Windows store and the Apple Store for Videolan's VLC
Player.
In Apple's App Store I didn't found anything.
In MS Store there it is listed with two apps:
* VLC for Windows (with remark that not all features are available)
* VLC for Windows Phone [sic]
So I'm sill undecided: on one and I do understand the need for a
business entity on the other hand I do not understand the need as other
non profit organizations like VLC are able to publish their apps in app
stores. What is different in their organization in comparison to our
organization?
The difference is that VLC in Apple's, MS's and Google's stores is
offered for free. In Google Play, it offers in-app purchases, which
apparently means the possibility to donate. So Videolan org does not
need to deal with app store revenue.
