What does this error on the Android App Submission mean?!

Market does not accept apks signed with the debug certificate. Create a new certificate that is valid for at least 50 years. Market requires that the certificate used to sign the apk be valid until at least October 22, 2033. Create a new certificate. I have not altered the source code from Buzztouch what so ever.

Debug signing is for, well debugging not for distribution. You using Eclipse? If so here is what the Android Dev site throws up with a Google search. Forum and Google search will always be your friend, as will folks on here. Compile and sign with Eclipse ADT If you are using Eclipse with the ADT plugin, you can use the Export Wizard to export a signed .apk (and even create a new keystore, if necessary). The Export Wizard performs all the interaction with the Keytool and Jarsigner for you, which allows you to sign the package using a GUI instead of performing the manual procedures to compile, sign, and align, as discussed above. Once the wizard has compiled and signed your package, it will also perfom package alignment with zipalign. Because the Export Wizard uses both Keytool and Jarsigner, you should ensure that they are accessible on your computer, as described above in the Basic Setup for Signing. To create a signed and aligned .apk in Eclipse: Select the project in the Package Explorer and select File > Export. Open the Android folder, select Export Android Application, and click Next. The Export Android Application wizard now starts, which will guide you through the process of signing your application, including steps for selecting the private key with which to sign the .apk (or creating a new keystore and private key). Complete the Export Wizard and your application will be compiled, signed, aligned, and ready for distribution.

Change the debuggable option in manifest.xml to false then recompile & export signed package
