[fuse-emulator-devel] Verifying Fuse in Flathub

[Alberto G. <be...@ig...>]

Hi,

as you know the Fuse emulator has been available in Flathub (the main
Flatpak "app store") for many years and it has been doing reasonably
well with an average of 30 downloads per day (numbers similar to
FS-UAE or Vice):

   https://flathub.org/apps/net.sf.fuse_emulator

One small thing that I would like to do is mark the app as "Verified",
which means that it was published or approved by the original
developers.

There are two things that need to be done:

1. Change the Flatpak ID to represent the actual canonical URL of
   the project's home page. I cannot verify the app with the current
   "net.sf..." name. This is something that I can handle completely on
   my own and is not a problem.

2. I have to prove control over the home page. This means that I have
   to create a file at this URL:

   https://fuse-emulator.sourceforge.net/.well-known/org.flathub.VerifiedApps.txt

   The file simply needs to contain an alphanumerical id provided by
   Flathub, and no further action is needed.

So if this all sounds good to you I would only need someone with
access to the project's home page to create the file with the ID that
I will provide (I need to apply for it first, but I wanted to confirm
with you before proceeding).

Regards,

Berto
