How to publish an app with Alexa AppKit using the portal

Hi all, I got the invitation to develop and test apps using Alex AppKit for Amazon Echo devices. I'm super excited! My question is how do I publish my Alexa app using the portal. The [b]Alexa AppKit - Application Summary[/b] page currently provides options only to create a new application or edit it. After I created an application, I don't see the option to publish it. I understand Alexa apps are not like mobile apps but they are web services hosted in the cloud. I don't see an option to submit the app for review or anything like that. Please help. Thank you.

You can't do this yet. Apps cannot be published to anyone else. Apparently we're in a pre-release phase for early developers. I assume we will be able to publish to other Echo users somehow in the future. I'm curious to see if there will be some kind of "App Store" and what form it will take.
