Please discuss the OSS free/libre elsewhere since it's unrelated with the topic. If you can stop playing tennis here many will appreciate it as well.

I think everybody following the threas got the points.

I actually agree with you. 200 karma feels like a right orientative thresold BUT DO NOT GET OBSESSED WITH KARMA as we are not.

Let us deploy the N900 device program, see who can apply and then you can start looking whether we missed someone essential.

By the way, I was serious supporting debernardis' proposal. If you are serious about it as well please go ahead. And as a test, check whether your potential candidates would have a karma belos 200. If only to check how well/bad the karma system actually works.

So if you have a karma of 300+, should you be worried that you haven't been contacted yet?

Hi Gnuite! Good to see you around.

Let me improve the string I used already for penguinbait:

In other words: work making your software available in Fremantle Extras.

Also, the fact that a developer like you has around 300 karma points and no more shows that we need to do something about http://maemo.org/community/brainstor...heir_software/

Please vote and contribute to that proposal (but not in this thread because it's off-topic and there is already another thread open about it http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=31519

rofl, all my accounts are registered under different emails I think (bug list reporting, my maemo talk account, whatever). But interesting to learn.

I wish there was some Karma for the number of hours spent here. My Karma will definitely jump to 200+ then!
