Closed: Fixed Opened by tintou.

Closed: Fixed
Reopen Issue

This page https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:AppData features an old implementation of the AppData specification.
As seen here http://people.freedesktop.org/~hughsient/appdata/
The example AppData should look like this

  Comical
  A Comic Archive Reader
  Un Comic Archive Lecteur
  
    

      Comical is an easy to use and cross-platform CBR and CBZ reader which
      prefetches and caches pages for speed.
    

    

      Comical est une CBR et CBZ lecteur facile à utiliser et
      multi-plateforme qui prélectures et caches pages pour la vitesse.
    

    

      Resized images are crisp, and you can view pages one or two at a time.
      Comical is open-source, so feel free to contribute new features!

Also it would be nice to fix the typo reported in the discussion tab:[[BR]]

Un Comic Archive Lecteur[[BR]] should be[[BR]] Un Comic Archive Lecteur[[BR]]

I fixed the typo from comment 3.

Looks like there was no announcement text.

The AppData guidelines were updated to reflect the current version of the AppData standard.
