Hello,
By "application" we understand services, AI models, algorithms, and full-fledged software packages, right?
Is there an actual "upload" of the "application"? Is it not only its metadata? How would the "upload" work for a service?
If you really mean an upload of the "application" itself, is it only to validate it before publishing in the catalogue or to offer a "download" option to consumers as well?
Thanks in advance for your answer.

Hello Dario,
Currently those are the three categories of applications, but it will be possible by the governance authority to extend those categories. The requirement is about the definitions of the self-description (metadata about the app). The self-descriptions are written by the application provider and describes the offering that he provides (what is the application, price, conditions, …). The upload refers to the publication of the self-description to the application catalogue.
Best Regards
Richard
