Hi folks,

Flathub is now requiring that applications define a "developer_name" tag in
their metadata (see [1], [2]).

What do folks think would be a good value for our application there?

Based on the suggestion in the documentation [3], I started making PRs [4]
[5] [6] [7] for our KDE Apps with "The KDE Community" as the
"developer_name" tag.

I'm open to suggestions.

Thanks,
