Hello,
i have submitted an app that now is pending for approval, and tried to submit another one that i host on the same domain, but it says that only one app is allowed from a domain.
What should i do to submit more app from the same domain? Is it possible? If not for now, will be possible in future?

Thank you in advance for your support.

It's not possible. There has been talk of changing in that the future, but there are no definite plans for that changing at the current time.

Thanks

The suggested alternative is to use subdomains. For example, app1.myapps.com, app2.myapps.com, etc.

Thank you for your answer,
i think could be a good idea to allow different app from the same domain, even to increment the number of the app in the marketplace.
Hope you will be evaluate this as soon as possible because this could limit a lot of developers.

Discussion of this issue has been on the dev-webapps mailing list (see http://www.mozilla.org/about/forums/#dev-webapps), for example  in this thread:
http://groups.google.com/group/mozilla.dev.webapps/browse_thread/thread/9482dcd34fa8c1a4/f2ac37fa6a83ff0e

The concern is that there are potential security problems with allowing multiple apps per domain. So far, there hasn't been a proposal that satisfactorily addresses security, and Mozilla would prefer to err on the side of being too conservative about security.

You are welcome to join that mailing list and join in the discussion. That list is the official channel for discussion about the development of the Apps framework.
