Re: SailfishOS bugs and glitches

Re: Jolla tracking numbers

I concur with your guess.

That's the first time I've heard of that flightradar site. It's pretty cool.

Re: Jolla tracking numbers

I do believe that I have shifted from obsessively refreshing the Jolla site to refreshing the Fedex site.

It's not as though I can make the plane (that I assume it is on) go any faster.

Re: Will you buy the Jolla phone?

II don't think of "dead end" in terms of a single device, more the manufacturer supported ecosystem around the device. I went from the N900 to an S3 as there clearly wasn't going to be anything to...

Re: What's your jolla queue preorder number?

They haven't sent them yet.

From the receipt :-
"We will notify you of your actual priority number at the end of the pre-order period."

Re: Will you buy the Jolla phone?

Re: SIO2 Interactive spamming votes to get his/her applications to Extras

What do you think the result would have been if he had circumvented Nokia's system security to insert his product into the Ovi store, bypassing whatever QA/contractual processes exist?

Re: SIO2 Interactive spamming votes to get his/her applications to Extras

That'sa completely separate issue and IIRC the QA requirements for non-free are lower. (something like does it run? is it optified? does int uninstall cleanly?)

Re: SIO2 Interactive spamming votes to get his/her applications to Extras

I have no real objection to commercial software being in maemo-extras, in my mind non-free is non-free. At one level, this is similar to the doom and quake ports.
