Ensuring a great application update experience

The upcoming MeeGo 1.2 Harmattan update (to version 1.2) features improved support for application updates.
The updated platform software will detect and announce updates to applications that are distributed through the Nokia Store.
And there was much rejoicing!
However, there are a couple of things developers need to be aware of when creating updates:
- Do not change the name of the content item or the package name, as the new version will not be displayed as an update (however, it will be visible in the Ovi Store client).
- Do not change the price point of the content item from free to non-free, please create a separate content item instead.
See the Nokia Publisher Guide for further details.

Does the application manager show any form of changelog for updates yet? It would be nice to know what updates are supposed to do.
(I know a full system update does show some details, but individual non-store app updates don't seem to)

As pepitoe already brought it up...
Changelogs would be greatly appreciated, so consumers would know better if a bug that's been bothering them has been fixed or not.

keep the name of the content item?

Oh, I just changed the name of the content items last week.
So I guess I should revert my changes back to the initial name?
But why is the content item name necessary for the update process? It should be anyway handled on package base and I'm currently easily able to create duplicate content item names. They should be identified with the ID, not with the name.
