  • According to the F-Droid docs the file structure for this kind of metadata can be used to add metadata as long as the files are included in a tagged release.

  • While at the moment we (afaik) do not automatically publish to Google Play we already use Gradle. So the "Gradle Play Publisher" seems to be a good choice. (F-Droid just uses the file structure. So there is no necessity to for us to actually use the tool.)

  • This commit includes:

    • contact-email
    • contact-website
    • title for de-DE and en-GB
    • short-description for de-DE and en-GB
    • full-description for de-DE and en-GB
    • a screenshot for de-DE and en-GB
  • This commit does not include:

    • a url to the app privacy policy as I could not find a valid filename within the Gradle Play Publisher readme.
    • video-url.txt that includes a URL to a Youtube video. We might want to use this in the future if another volunteer is bored enough to create such a video. :D

I vote to simply add -1 (revision) to the v1.1 tag (v1.1-1) as to emulate the Debian versioning for added nerd factor and of course because nothing meaningful to the app itself changed.
