I very much appreciate your work on this application, rachol. however, it being security related and all, I feel it should be open source. (I have read your previous statement about this.)

please take this as positive criticism and a vote towards open-sourcing. ;)

I don't say "no" for it being open sourced, but first I have to make such implementation, that is safe enough to be open sourced :) however for this day it is not safe yet enough, so I will keep it closed source. I just mind your security, belive me.

Btw. I am looking for someone experienced in packaging and uploading projects do extras-devel. I have never uploaded anything to extras-devel so it might take some time for me to work it out.

I have send a request for an invitation for uploading to extras-devel, but I have not received any yet. It has been now for almost 24 hours. Anyone has any idea what I should do about it?

KUDOS TO YOU rachol. I've been waiting for an app like this on the N900 for a while as I dont do any programming myself. Downloaded it yesterday and tested it out...Stellar Application!!! Already recommended it to two others. Look forward to further development of this app.


Sidenote: I'm waiting for someone to attempt to steal my baby. So I can find them and hurt them :rolleyes:

It should monitor the motion sensor and the charging status and after a threshold of movement or time without charging the phone should start to play an alarm sound as loud as it can.
This could be handy if you are travelling and you have to leave your phone unattended for a while (but near by) and someone wants to steal it or check out information on the phone.

Don't you think this could fit in your application?

Also, is this app being developed using Qt? If not would you consider doing so as MeeGo is coming and I'm sure anyone wanting to migrate to the early MeeGo builds would not want to leave such an app behind.

I have developed with Qt as much as it was possible :)
