[:glob ✱]

this doesn't appear to be a bugzilla related request.

caitlin, can you please either clarify what you're asking the bugzilla team to do, move this bug to the correct location (legal?), or close it.

thanks!

Would this be better?

I think the article being referred to is

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Marketplace/Options/Creating_a_store

And Caitlin is looking for a content review?

Or am I totally wrong? ;-)

I am looking for a content review.
Bill Walker is your best point of contact as he has been testing this functionality recently.

This looks good. You could choose to mention a few more things

* note: to install signed (privileged) apps from your store created by The Directory Method, your users must go to about:config and add this host to dom.mozApps.signed_apps_installable_from

* at present, if you follow the "full marketplace implementation" you will not be able to offer privileged apps, because no devices will trust the signed apps from your store. You'll need to rebuild Gecko with your public key in Gecko's new certificate verification library [reference needed]

* Firefox Markplace goes to a lot of trouble to filter the apps it shows you based on what it knows about your device and based on what each app's developer says it can support. TheCount does neither.
