Re: extras-testing: many applications to be tested
 
I'm quite agree with you ... I just think it is wrong to ask only 10 Super Testers (there are still all?) for all this work ... So I do tests every now and am trying to spurn others to do tests

Re: extras-testing: many applications to be tested
 
Maybe we should ask the developer of faster app manager to implement a voting method.
It would require an account, it must be possible to get 2 anchor tags for each app out of a website and implement links in the app.

BTW I only need 2 votes to get my icon-set approved which will mean I can promote Pleego Remix to extras.

Please can 2 people test and vote for my icon-set.

Thanks

/rant - sorry
maemo.org should have "marketing" group that actively advertises stuff going on around here. Also "ad" banners that get updated constantly telling what is going on and where some help is needed should be there without even having to had some insightful conversation with bright minds about it. This place has flavor of "academic" strongly written across it and by this I do not mean good :|

.edit
Less text more images with links. Something like this:

Clutter free layout where you can find all tidbits but they are under the hood.

Excellent! I hope you continue to work on these ideas and their implementation.

1. [ ] Bug database exist.
2. [ ] Licensing ok.
3. [ ] No illegal/dubious content.
4. [ ] Working provided features.
5. [ ] No missing announced features.
6. [ ] Optification ok.
7. [ ] No performance problems.
8. [ ] No power management issues.
9. [ ] No known security risks.

It takes some dedication, some effort to do it right but the result should be applications that get released to default enabled repositories that are ready for prime time.

I do not argue with your first statement, the backlog of applications is a good indication that something is not working right. I wish I had the answer.

Re: extras-testing: many applications to be tested
 
Update: today I counted 187 applications.
Please test and rate.
I remember that easily someone is already using them (but check that your version matches) and then, if he has not had problems, can vote.

Re: extras-testing: many applications to be tested
 
Update: today I counterd 190 applications in extras-testing repository.

As mentioned above, surely many of you are already using applications that are still in extras-esting and must be rated. In this case, you do not even make the effort to download applications you do not need, you can give a hand to those already you are using. It can be very helpful to use a application that tells you what applications you have and which are extras-testing.
This application is called: "KISSTESTER".

Ironically it's only in extras-devel, from where testers should never install anything.
