Re: extras-testing: many applications to be tested
 
Yeah, I know it's done now, but thanks for showing how to vote. I feel stupid now with it being that easy. I was looking for a "vote" button.
Perhaps one of the maintainers of maemo.org, could implement something a little more obvious. I'm sure alot more people would then vote and pitch in.

That may cloud the difference between this voting, which is based upon the QA checklist, and the "hot or not" voting at Downloads.

That may very well be, but the problem is that many programs are not getting voted out of extras and devels due to the obscurity of the method. Hell, to be honest this is the first time I've voted for programs that I use pretty constantly. You can make a case that I'm lazy as I knew that there was some place to vote for them but I think it's made pretty obvious by this thread that many people are like me and if you have to come to maemo.org, login, locate the repository and find the program you want to vote for you're just not going to get a lot of people doing that. There has to be an easier and more visual way to vote for tested programs then the way it currently is.

Re: extras-testing: many applications to be tested
 
is forum membership and website membership a separate thing? I can post on the forum until my thumbs fall off, but it won't let me use my forum account for the rest of the maemo.org website.

I would really like to help if i could.

Yes. They are separate!

Wow, if I knew, I would not have wasted so much time passing an application at a time! Thanks!

Well, I hope someone appreciates the effort :D Also because I have insertet the version and not included those that are ready to be unlocked.

as you can see from that spreadsheet we already had "testing" threads but they ended because testing group got large enough...I think? Dunno current situation. This whole maemo.org is bit mess on easiness of usage side. Everything is basically there but well...hmmm...you have to really really dig stuff out there and still everything is really fragmented.
