Meltemi, MeeGo, maemo, Tizen... I would say lets call it Linux Mobile Future Coding Competition. :D

But I guess first needs Zehjotkah some maemo community competition vacation... ;)

Re: MeeGo Coding Competition 2011
 

Sorry to ask this but where is the page where we can vote? I can't find it anywhere...

Re: MeeGo Coding Competition 2011
 

IMHO you'd have to keep it within one development platform or at best a few very closely related ones. Otherwise it just becomes a competition on the relative platforms' popularity.

Re: MeeGo Coding Competition 2011
 

You should have got an email if you've maemo karma above 10.
unfortunately we had to filter the users based on karma because the maemo.org admins wanted to keep as far as possible away from being like spam.

Re: MeeGo Coding Competition 2011
 

Oh, yes I totally agree that this is an important benefit of Maemo/MeeGo. My point was that apps published in Nokia Ovi store are additionally tested by Nokia QA and after all at the moment the app stores are the fastest way to the mass market.

Re: MeeGo Coding Competition 2011
 

Mmmh... I would consider applications at Maemo Extras (not Extra-Devel) are at minimum as well tested as at the Ovi store. Okay, in the most cases I'm sure only a single Nokia employee would test the application whereas at Maemo Extras there are... okay, I would stop here. [sarcasm] The Ovi store is simply great! [/sarcasm] :D

Re: MeeGo Coding Competition 2011
 

Arr. I have only 6. If I manage to get 10 now will I be able to vote?

Re: MeeGo Coding Competition 2011
 

Sadly not. Sorry. :(

We wanted to avoid this situation. But as you're able to read in this thread we had many problems setting up this voting and this was as far as I'm able to judge the only working solution to get a proper voting for our competition. (we are already many months behind our schedule)

I hope you can understand this... perhaps you could advertise your fafourite application a little bit instead of voting for it? :)

Re: MeeGo Coding Competition 2011
 

I understand. Too bad! If I knew it before and linked talk.maemo.org account with my maemo profile my karma surely would have been above 10.
C'est la vie.

Re: MeeGo Coding Competition 2011
 

Voting is hard! I'm using Firefox and the voting page makes it very hard to rank the submissions. Look at the attached screenshots: the entries overlap! This problem disappears if I make my browser window >3000 pixels wide (which is a bit unusable). Can someone fix this, please.
