extras-testing apps
 

Hi,

the purpose of this thread is, to get more visibility
for some applications in extras-testing.
I will write here about applications I have voted for.
Please do not jump to the extras-testing page and
just vote for this applications.

The point is:
For many applications in extras-devel the same version is in extras-testing, too.
And many users use this apps from extras-devel repository and are satisfied,
but haven't voted for this applications in extras-testing.
So, if you use this apps and if you are satisfied and share my opinions about the
QA-Checklist, please consider to vote for the apps.

I will start with one of my own apps :-)

regards
Nicolai

Of course, this will take some additional battery power while
device is locked. But it doesn't "drained" the battery.

Additional comments:
The bugtracker link is the same as for the program
mStatus. But I don't think this hurts, because it is the same maintainer.

Re: extras-testing apps
 

Maybe I should make it more clear.
Those apps are in extras-devel with the same version
in extras-testing, too.
Many of you use this apps. If you think they are
stable and fulfil the QA-Checklist, why not vote for them?

Nicolai

Re: extras-testing apps
 

I understand exactly why you made the thread and I like the idea. May also recommend checking out KISSter which should help in this regard when it's a little more complete.

I'm surprised this thread has received as little attention as it has.

Re: extras-testing apps
 

I don't give up!

All these apps are in extras-devel and have the same
version in extras-testing.
If you use the extras-devel version and if you think they
are stable, consider to vote.

Re: extras-testing apps
 

battery-eye is in extras-testing since over a month now.
It has cool new features, like the statistics page.
It has only six votes so far.

Please consider to test and vote in extras-testing.
There are many other applications which are in extras-devel
and extras-testing for a long time. Help the developers to
bring more application in extras.

Thank you.
