Description

An homebrew developer could add a metadata file (a-la game.json) in the source repository of it's project (like https://citation-file-format.github.io/) and then ask the repository/homebrew hub to harvest their game

If the metadata file passes validation, it could be added "automatically" to the main repository

To discuss:

- abuses
- updates?
- DMCA?
