if you can get cups to work, the itt community should pitch in to buy you one

If peng thinks he deserves it, he should just sign up for it instead of posting a poll. I doubt he wouldn't get one if he tried.

I did sign up, but I thought I would pose the question. I have heard people say that what I have done is a waste of time. Does not releasing things properly through the garage does this make me less worthy? I looked into the garage but 200 and 300MB packages are not doable.

I just thought I would see how the community felt. Sorry Zerojay if my poll annoys you in some way. But thanks for your two cents!

When I hear people like Gnuite wondering if they will get one, it makes me wonder if I deserve one.

Why are 200mb packages not doable? :-X

No, it doesn't annoy me any. Even if I didn't use most of the stuff you've worked on doesn't mean I think you don't deserve it.

There are many people here that deserve one, but at the top of my list would be Fanoush. His boot loaders and utilities have made the biggest difference for me and my n800. I will literally hold off on upgrading to os2008 or an n810 until he is able to take a look at things and *hopefully* update his contributions.

Erm, is this poll some kind of personal PPRR or some form of extrovertism? And on the other hand, at this point after having invested so much time hacking the tablets you should know the maemo team psyche a bit better.

What criteria should we follow to give away 500 discount codes and leave out the guy that has shown proof of concept of KDE, XFCE and CUPS in the tablet. Or the author of the most popular and downloaded third party application (Maemo Mapper). Or the person delivering on time unofficial kernel images that squeeze the capabilities of the tablets beyond Nokia's EULA?

I mean, *in which planet do you think we live*?

This is the absolute silliest question I've yet heard on ITT, and I have hear some reeeeaaaallly stupid ones.

Of course. Yes.

So much of your time and energy (electrical too ) Has gone into these works for the community.

The criterion that would allow me to apply for one

Only the work on the KDE is enough to buy you a project leader post in Nokia, ..........., of course you deserve one. And if you actually take up the post, you would make great contribution to the coming WiMax one


Keep up the good work, Penguinbait
