Bug Description

Binary package hint: software-center

User story: You are a software developer. Trying out Ubuntu Software Center, you think "How could I get my application in here?" Somehow, USC makes this obvious.

So, as soon as <http://myapps.developer.ubuntu.com> exists, Ubuntu Software Center should link to it somewhere. Where exactly that link should go, I'm not sure yet. Maybe an unobtrusive place in the lobby screen, or maybe an item in the "Help" menu.

I've now specified this: a "For Software Developers" item in the "Help" menu. <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareCenter?action=diff&rev2=582&rev1=581>

We have a branch for this now thanks to Juhana Jauhiainen !

Unfortunately we are in UI freeze and this changes the menu structure (slightly) and adds a string so I would like to ask for a UI freeze exception for this.

summary: - Need a link to developer.ubuntu.com somewhere

Seems fine, and the site is online now. Approved from -release side. I subscribed the translators, to get their opinion as well, as it introduces a new string.

I'd say ok from translators: now that developer.ubuntu.com is up, I think it's important to point people to the right resources.

And it's a new string rather than a change in an existing one, so +1.
