Slight correction. We're shipping gnome-software 3.10.x in Fedora 20,
3.12.x in Fedora 21, and 3.14.x in Fedora 22, so the hard requirement
of AppData files isn't going to be for a long while yet (at least a
year).

I'm actually interested in including these extra fields in the AppData
spec; the original specification is deliberately small in scope to
avoid overwhelming people interested in adding an AppData file. Future
versions of the spec will add more information such as a donate URL,
an IRC channel link, mailing list etc. For instance, there is an open
bug for donations here:
https://github.com/hughsie/appdata-tools/issues/7 and I'd be very open
to spec improvement ideas.
