Just a couple of questions to the community as a whole.

If I have a working version of a game i created should I post it even though I plan on doing a lot more work for it (i.e. changeing graphics, adding documentation/help files) or should I wait until I think I have a final version, then release it.

Also is there any naming convention? (like if I used Lua do I need to put Lua in the title, or should I put PSP in the title)

Is there any standard disclamers that I should include in the readme file?

Speaking of the readme file, what all should it contain?

Should I pack it for just 1.5, or should I pack it for 1.0 and 1.5?

Thanks-

If it's a prog/game that is playable and do something (no more hello world's PLEASE!

) you could release a beta/alpha version first then realease the final version. And release it in both 1.0 and 1.5 versions so no one will be angry. Many programs/games created in lua doesn't have either psp or lua in the title. So you should be able to choose whatever name you want.
