    Now that the donations issue has been handled, what about the voting?
    How is it going to work? Starts on? Ends on? Who can cast votes? How? Where?

    I remember reading somewhere that the idea was to use the "testing" repository voting system. Is it? I am curious because the "new" applications are bound to have bugs and every new package with fixes will have a different "voting instance" on testing. Also, I find voting on "testing" a bit cumbersome, it would be better if we could bring a lot of the community to vote.... just my 2cts.

    I'm not quite familiar with the limitations of the forum's voting feature, but wouldn't it be possible to simply create a topic for each category with a list of the applications to vote for?

    An added benefit might be that in the first post of those voting threads, additional information for each project provided by the developers (where to download, short description, screenshots, links to websites and development threads) could be added to help the voters with making a decision.

    I donated 40eur (minus the fees). But I'm afraid I'm not gonna made it to this one. I would need to upgrade to Snow Leopard and still would get only the beta version of the SDK. So I rather wait it to be more mature. I have no interest in fighting to put on the basic environment - i want to get straight to business

    Just use some Linux in a VM and install the SDK there.

    Or succumb to the dark side of Python programming...

    (Btw, for everybody who already did that: Eric runs from within EasyDebian, and pretty fast/stable/smoothly, too.)

    I've just entered Gonvert. Its an existing program but has had "significant" changes. I'll let others judge if they are significant enough to be worth being in the competition
    • Rewritten to use Qt in preparations for Meego
    • "Favorites" for unit categories and units
    • Quick Jump
    • Recent Conversions selection
    • Adding a single window Category, To, From conversion mode.
    • More? I can't remember

    Hi,

    my contribution for this coding competition:

    http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...980#post748980

    I put it in the category "Other" in the competition-wiki page.
    Because there is no "Office" categery. Or should it be
    "System & Utilities" instead?

      * New: DBUS method "is_on_sight" which returns true (QBW Instance is "ON SIGHT", that is, widget is on current desktop and display is not locked or on stand by) or false (QBW Instance is not on current desktop and visible or display is off or on stand by)
      * Changed: Optimized usability of settings for Widget Width and Height

      * Changed: Logic to purge configuration settings of non-existent QBW instances from configuration file. (Check/Purge performed at every entrance in Settings dialog)

    Im going to try and keep it simple with a forum vote on a thread for each category. I haven't made the thread yet because we wont know all the entrants until the deadline, also people will start voting right away.. then ask to change it later
