Hello, GNOMErs! I'm not sure this is quite the right mailing list,
but it seemed correct.
Basically, I'm the maintainer of a 3rd party (i.e. not formally
recognized by the GNOME project as part of its offerings) open source
application designed for GNOME [1]. My question is, as an unofficial
GNOMEish app, how much of gnome.org infrastructure is it OK to use?
Specifically, is it appropriate for a 3rd party app to:
* Add pages to live.gnome.org for the app
* Add itself to http://projects.gnome.org/
The above is really all I'm interested in, but additionally, if I
wanted, would it be appropriate to:
* Ask for a bugzilla project for the app
* Ask for a mailing list
* Use git branches (I happen to have commit access, but I'm still not
sure adding my 3rd party apps would be OK)
* Use tarball release infrastructure
i.e. how much of a generic GNOME app project host is gnome.org?
I assume that some of this information is available somewhere, but I
both didn't know where to look and couldn't find it. Maybe in
addition to answering me, someone could add the answer to the GNOME
website somewhere.

[1] My question is specifically generic, but if the answer depends on
details (i.e. "exactly how GNOME-y is the app?"), this is the kind of
project I'm talking about: http://launchpad.net/deja-dup -- it uses
GTK+, gnome-keyring, nautilus plugins, etc.
