zehjotkah, correct. I am donating 40€ ! Thanks for checking

Although the double donation was a mistake, I easily use more than 40€'s worth of free apps on my N900. This is a small token of thanks to all those who code in their spare time so we can have better devices.

A big thank you to all the developers who've supported this amazing device so far

- Search for cities - in the geonames.org database to navigate quickly
- Download map tiles for selected zoom levels - for offline use
- New Map drawing - scale indicator on map, on screen display for target distance, better visibility for icons and text
- Better search features - E.g. search geocaches around your current position.
- Instant update feature - Follow web site updates as soon as possible.
- New user interface - featuring a "actions" and a "quick settings" menu
- New About Dialog
- Data purging - Clear the database from found geocaches, save space on your phone by deleting old images
- New coordinate list handling, including editing and preview

Just an information...who is the organiser? Whom should I send the pm ? Is this mandatory (also the .txt) ?


P.S. : for voters: these are (at least for me) work in progress app, so you'd better vote for the app idea instead for the current status of the app (am I wrong ?).


Thanks.

Hey b0unc3, thanks for the entry details. I'm pretty much organiser at this point, or I'll do my best to be. I'm down as it on the wiki anyway
http://wiki.maemo.org/index.php?titl...seful_contacts

Is it mandatory, not totally. Is it in your best interests, most definitely! I just dont have the time to scavenge around for bits and pieces of info on each project, if any author's dont want a title and blank description on the voting thread they best send me something

Welcome to the competition, Bzouk


BTW I sent a pm earlier to thp as his wiki entry is still showing "TBA" as the project name, and hasn't been updated in weeks. If he doesn't get it updated in time his entry will be incomplete and invalid, so I hope it updates it soon

We currently have 66 projects listed on the wiki as entries, in comparison I dont have so many PMs with details from author's yet. We still have another few hours to go and I suspect they'll all start coming in at the end But there's no way Im going to be able to create voting threads for 60-odd projects tonight, I got to sleep sometime!

The new plan is to start with two categories tonight to get their voting threads up and running by tomorrow morning. I've chosen "Desktop" and "Location & Navigation" to begin with as they are a little smaller in number (so far) but also because they have more proportion of PMs in now.. so I can start work on them right away. So please everyone who's entered for these two categories get your PMs in asap so I can get to sleep sooner

No!No!No!Yes!, Ianaré, Venemo, and Benson Tsai - I need your PMs for your desktop entries. You too, digitalsurgeon, if you finally decide on a category for your app!

pine and tahitibob35 - I still need your PMs for your location entries.

Over the next day or two the voting threads for the remaining categories will be done. Ofcourse, there won't be any further entries permitted into the competition after the close of contest tonight. Just a few hours left

It matters if you'd like to be considered for the beginner's competition!

It's a smaller competition thats going to be running at the same time, but it's strictly for coders who have created and released their first app for the N900 during the competition dates (May 21st-July21st). It sounds like you're eligible, so if so just let me know and I'll put your "Yes" back in there .. or you can update the wiki yourself if u fancy here

It costs nothing to enter so you might as well

Thanks y'all!

I know the first one, he pm'd me already to let me know. The second Im not sure...
