I'm not entirely certain I understand the purpose of the application. It is meant as a 'better application manager', i.e. replacing it, or is it for some other purpose? From the screenshots it looks a bit like what you see if you hit the 'ovi store' downloader.
I hope this answered the question.

Hi,
after some improvements in all parts, the "appdownloader" is now available in extras-testing. All the details you will find in this blog post.
So if you find some time, please install it on your device and let me know what you think about it. Special thanks again to Bergie, Niels (server-side API) and Andrew (UI-design).

Congrats ! One practical question - how stable is libqt4-appdownloader-comm ? As in, can we start using in our packages, too, once it lance in Extras without fear of breakage ?

This is pretty stable...it should be a bit more configurable, but this I try to do without API breaks. Otherwise I will announce that. But I have to work on the documentation before I guess.

Would be possible to reuse most of the appdownloader to help browsing, voting and commenting on applications still on testing?
Maybe even go a step further and have a version that allows the same for the applications on development.... going one step crazier would be even nicer if we could also have the comments about the applications, at least the ones still on development, also make to the "announcement" thread....
I wonder how many n900 users have extas-devel enabled, regardless of all the big warnings. I would assume a big chunk have and could benefit from some more information before deciding to install an application (rates, comments, ...).
The benefit to the applications on testing for me is even more obvious. It would help getting more people to participate and by that improve the application's quality that make to extras and speed the process.
