One big drawback with Google Play is that it is impossible to search/browse apps with the criteria that they are open source, or when an app is selected there is no info about the license or source. For Android eventually F-Droid appeared as the solution.

Will we need to create an alternative to Harbour or can it have as an built-in feature to show the license and perhaps even a virtual category "open source" that lists all the openly licensed apps?

And also it the project website / sources was as a link in the app description, what would increase trustability and help devs contribute to apps they install/use. Or even better if Harbour was integrated with the Open Build System so that anybody installing any app could trace it to the source it was built from (of course only if it was shipped to Harbour in source format).
