Please consider writing and installing an AppData file with the application description and some screenshots, else qBittorrent looks really bad in the GNOME and KDE Software Centers. We'd love to showcase more applications, but without the extra data file we can't. See http://people.freedesktop.org/~hughsient/appdata/ for details; thanks!

This seems interesting, but I give it low priority. Patches are welcome though.

Yes, sorry for the request. I'm trying to contact over 800 upstreams, and even with a few full time helpers it would be impossible to get high quality screenshots for this many applications as we just don't know the applications well. The idea of AppData is to do this just once by the people that know how to show the application off, and then the data can be shared by everyone.
