Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu Canonical is announcing the availability of PPA: a Launchpad-integrated free service which allows anyone to get 1 GB of space to upload whatever software they want. Launchpad will compile it automatically and will set up an apt repository with your package to anyone who wants to use it. Aditionally, PPAs offer bug reporting and translation services.

non-Linux?

from the article it sounded like an ok service, but then most of you guys relate it to Linux... I know Canonical makes Ubuntu and probably the majority of people using the service will in fact be using Linux, but... is it suitable for non-Linux? (ie: as in cross-development)
