You can use gnome-software from git master on Fedora and SUSE now, as I've spent quite a bit of last week with the SUSE rel-eng people making their metadata validate. I've got a few more compat bits to add, and then you'll be able to add Ubuntu and Arch to that list too. The idea is that all the software centers (USC, a couple of smaller ones) would consume this too, so it's not even gnome-software specific. > Audacious upstream has asked whether the AppData file would only be used > by Fedora?

Yes, it's designed to be upstream unless there's a very good reason. Over a 110 upstream projects have already merged AppData files, although most are not present in Fedora as you have to normally wait for a new tarball release. If you can convince them to translate the appdata file too, that'd be double awesome.
