Hi,
I have posted the following feature request. If any other developer here would like to see this feature, let Google know marking it with a star..
Would like to have a Marketplace for Google App Engine apps, where
From the end-user's perspective :
1. Anyone who is interested in using Google App Engine can browse for apps by category, read reviews, etc.,.
2. Install it directly into their own Google App Engine account (either associated to a normal Google account or a Google Apps user account).
3. Use it for a trial period and later pay for app ($9/month minimum + additional usage charges), of which Google pays the developer a percentage.
From the developer's perspective :
1. Any developer can build an apps on Google App Engine and mark their app as available for sale, from within Google App Engine dashboard.
2. Option to restrict source code download (on by default) for such paid deployments.
3. Option to specify the GData APIs used within the app.
Nice to have features :
1. Developers have options to mark specific versions as "stable", "development" and enable customers to move to latest stable version at their own convenient time (after N-days/weeks, automatic/on-weekends).
It will also be better to be part of the Google Apps marketplace, for which I believe Google App Engine and Google Apps folks will have to co-ordinate.
Star this if you are a developer betting on Google App Engine.
Thanks & Regards,
R.Rajkumar

Hi,
Below is a quick list of past threads, which have been requesting for a Marketplace for Google App Engine apps, in one form or other..
Clarification of Term 4.4How to distribute my app?Questions about the preferred way to handle multiple apps/accounts'Add It Now' Functionality for my own Google App Engine ApplicationDistributing the same app to multiple domainsPer-domain data stores and selling our apps to people who use google domains...Is it possible to sell a CMS hosted on Google App Engine without the code being visible ?Deployment APIMultiple Instances of the Same AppSelling App Engine AppsIsolated Application Deployment InstancesCreating a Windows desktop deployment utility ie. port of appcfg.py to C# client libraryAutomating deploymentsource code encryptiondeploying applicaiton to multiple customers1 application, multiple datastoresusage & billing and multiple deployment
There should be more such requests. But it is obvious that this is an important feature which can enable better adoption rates of the Google App Engine, helping both the Google folks building this wonderful platform and the developers who love working on it.
And, if you have not already done so, you can star this feature request : Marketplace for Google App Engine apps, to let Google know that you are interested too.
Thanks & Regards,
Raj

Would you please stop this? You are starting to get really annoying.
