[Q] XDA-market

[tbo-art]

Can't we make our own market for all the android apps that are on this forum. Where every XDA member could post their own apps. Something like a 'XDA-market' or something like that.
Or is this bad for androids own market?

Sounds like a good idea, a lot of work for the server and a robust client however. But this would be good for the small things that change a lot, plus insulates small devs from a dev fee from Google for small apps they don't see as having a heavy distribution or such.

what would the advantage of XDA market be, over the other markets, like MobiHand, GetJar etc. ?

You could put in only XDA members apps and also rom's without searching the hole forum for it. And you can restrict it for developers only. That way they can work easily with developers only. It would be easier to get beta testers this way.

WOW! I think this is an awesome idea, I can't believe no one has done this already, we have some talented devs here that do ALOT of stuff that they only release for XDA members. I would love to see this happen, having all XDA apps AND roms in one "market" specifically for XDA members and devs, I say add a poll to this thread OP, lets see how many of us would use this

it's a great idea! I'ld like to contribute to this project.

Rather than a separate market, how about a forum where the *only* threads allowed contain links to these xda apps. Comments can either be allowed in those threads, or have separate comment threads elsewhere. This would take a lot less development, though slightly more moderation perhaps.

i'm ok with this it will be nice to have a place to find app another then the appbrain or market

 

[tbo-art]

There is just one problem. I need someone that can make it because I can't. It was just an idea that I had. So I've someone can do that I would be very happy.

lets find some Repositories for this app
and share them here

 

[Caspers25]

This a great idea.
Why don't you make contact with the developers and do something.
I mean we all love talking about our favorite apps.
And what we think is good.
If they do come out with this it would be amazing.

except the default repo all other repos are illegal repos :S

Awesome............... Can those other repos be, um, disabled, not shown for potential XDA apps usage? Clearly wouldn't want XDA just being "one of many" repos there, the many being all warez.
