As part of the current boosters sprint[1] which aims at integrating
the appstream[2] project into our distribution we would like to enhance
the web view on our packages at software.o.o/search.

With the final target of an web-based appstore we began thinking of
how to display a package (app) to the user.
The challenge is to make available the matrix of different OS versions,
repositories and package versions in a clear way while making it easy for
the standard user to get the latest stable version for his OS without getting
confused.

We already have a mockup available:

Feedback appreciated :-)

Hey Thomas, I found the mockup really readable once you are in the package,
Now what is not shown it kate-addons etc, how this list will be handle.
Cause most of the time you have a pattern to search so you want a result of
kinda contains kate

Then next point, if you change software.o.o, will be the including home
supported?
