Hi

I am interested in this feature of providing PA applications. How the 
applications can be made available server side ? Currently I have setup 
a repository on https://build.merproject.org/ and I add with zypper this 
repo in order to install my application (TabletReader). For Active 
Okular I do believe that in the current form is difficult to use as a 
reader on PA.
