</plist> CONNECTING TO YOUR REPO: All you do to connect to your repo is upload repo.xml to your googlepages account and then when its done, go to installer and type in the name of the googlepages account like this: http://ipodtouchpros.googlepages.com/repo.xml If you see your package and it says "main execution failed" then that means you didn't zip the package correctly. However, if it says "package download failed" that means you didn't copy the size correctly or the hash isn't right. You may check your repository next to mine if you would like to use an example. Mine is http://ipodtouchpros.googlepages.com/repo.xml (source http://www.freewebs.com/ipodtouchpros/)
