            Bug ID: 389482
           Summary: Display per-release information on the app page, when
                    available
           Product: Discover
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: discover
          Assignee: aleix...@kde.org
          Reporter: pointedst...@zoho.com
  Target Milestone: ---

When an App's AppStream data defines <release> tags that have actual
information in them (as opposed to just a version number and a release date),
we should reward the app by allowing the user to see this information on thre
actual app page itself, not only in the update view.

When updating, users like changelogs because it makes them feel like they can
make an informed decision before deciding whether or not to update, but on the
app page, it gives them a sense that the project actually has forward momentum
and is actively developed. Here's an example of how ElementaryOS's store
presents the information:

I'd be happy to work up a proof-of-concept patch if you think this could be a
decent enough idea. I was thinking of having it under a "Latest news" section
header or something, but I'll try out a few different ideas.
