Ok, so I created a plex app that can let you view shows directly off your TiVo.  
  
(documented the app at [http://forums.plexapp.com/index.php?showtopic=4316](http://forums.plexapp.com/index.php?showtopic=4316) )  
  
  
  
  
  
I’m not familiar with how one goes about submitting an app to the appstore, (I’m having  
  
a lot of trouble finding documentation in general, so sorry if I’m asking an obvious question)…  
  
Is there a process?

AFAIK, the short answer is "not yet."  
  
I've been watching closely since the App Store appeared, and haven't seen anything even mentioned about getting plugins developed outside of the existing Plex team into the App Store. They have talked a bit about documentation, but really only to say that it's coming later. The only exception is an incomplete [wiki page on writing site configuration XML](http://wiki.plexapp.com/index.php/Creating\_Plugins\_Site\_Config).

Several plug-ins on the App Store are third party submissions (The White House, IGN, Rae Barnes, Braedon Photography, etc). The reason you haven’t seen much on the forum is because most developers so far have contacted us directly rather than post here. If you check Elan’s blog you’ll see that the first third party plug-in was added to the store less than 24 hours after it launched.
