I use shine to manage my user list, sparkle trends, application updates, etc.
A few changes that I have in my fork are:
- CocoaFob support - generate cocoafob licenses for my app
- Fastspring license generation and storage (probably obsolete now that FastSpring does CocoaFob generation - originally a service called by fastspring to generate and store the license during checkout
- OpenFeedback sends a email to my support email address when new feedback is submitted
- HTML formatted emails for license generation/notification
Things that would be nice to see:
- A REST API for application submission - scripting the application release process from the desktop is very attractive. This could be as simple as a curl script or as fancy as a desktop app.
- email Address export for licensed users - simple CSV extract of licensed user base - useful for notifying users of major upgrades
