Hi Fabien,
thanks for your comment, I think nobody will think that you are trolling.
I totally agree with you that Jessie is now history and we should support more distributions.
As I think it will be a longer process while we can support all the distributions that we want.
It's in initial phase, and I think if community members -like you- share your thoughts, things can be changed...
API key: it's a matter of choice...
If you don't want to use this API key based repository, just use one the unofficial.
(from my part I was thinking on to close my repository, but well... I won't).
regards,
Laszlo Budai
