I got burned by the whole process. I got zero help from anyone in the
fedora infrastructure team, and was asked to change the format of the
data twice, and was asked to make the generation tools use less RAM,
then less CPU, then told that there was not enough disk IO to generate
the rawhide daily metadata.

I'm still happy to generate the appstream-compatible data and write a
trivial UI for this (or to fork and port ubuntu-app-install) but
Fedora infrastructure either needs to want to host this on the servers
and do the work integrating it into the compose tools, or it needs to
accept that we ship a package full of cached data like I've been
suggesting all along, and like Ubuntu have been doing for over 5
years. Actually doing the work is pretty easy, but I've not got the
energy to fight for the application data in Fedora anymore.

Richard.
