I like the name Catalyst. Better than Marzipan. Still a lot of questions, hopefully to be answered this afternoon. Most important: will it require the Mac App Store? (A little worried that Atlassian specifically said Jira was coming to the store.)

@manton Agreed! It sounds more professonal and serious and its meaning is more appropriate. Hopefully all of the negativity around un-Mac-like apps will disappear now.

@manton JIRA/Atlassian says that because in order to make 🤑, they need to attach that cost of the application to the user license which is their current model. If there is going to be an update in the store that accounts for user licenses separate from personal licenses, there would be different on deck. Also, they give personal licenses a play w/macOS store — aligning w/Trello audience more than JIRA/Confluence.

@manton Dieter Bohn has some good news for you.

@manton Just heard in the "Bringing your iPad apps to the Mac" session: "After archiving, you can bring your app to the Mac App store, or distribute outside it using your Developer ID". Looks like Mac App Store is NOT required for Catalyst apps!

@EddieHinkle This is really good news. I'm excited to play around with Catalyst.

@manton Looks like the main requirement for non-Store apps is that they are notarized... although that's been true or at least a predictable move for a while, I think? IDK that's the impression I've got from afar.
