Re: How to use maemo mapper?
 

Interesting definition of hording information. Availble to the many thousands of viewers that have come to read it on my site but horded because it's not published in the Maemo Wiki. As a matter of note there are a number of links to this HowTo in blogs and forums not part of the Maemo community. John Costigan, a.k.a. gnuite, thanked me for my work on the HowTo and added a link to it from the development site. This is a most interesting thread. One poster said the HowTo has reached a level of completeness that it's ready to be added to the WiKi. Another that it is so bad that the WiKi is required to save it. Another accused me of copying it from these forums. And now I'm to be despised and hated for trying to help others while building traffic to my site which has links back to these forums. So be it but I won't let implied threats or insults get in the way of my participating in these forums.

i can see how some of these comments, inclucing mine, would or could hurt your feelings. i apologize. (no one hates you.) i apreciate what you have done. it is helpful, but it is less than it could be if others could contribute. i thought it would be appropriate to apologize publicly, but at the same time i know others are tired of this discussion. so i'll end here.

What I don't understand is how hard it is for people to do it themselves then. Sure what fragos is doing isn't in the spirit of 100% sharing but he's not blocking you from putting a link to his site from there, he's not hiding it from you or actively preventing you from putting similar information out. He's just asking you not to copy and paste from him. It's not like the information is secret. All you need to do is take screenshots and then write a guide on say how to download POI.

Press this, click this, type in query, etc..etc..

Heck with the amount of people commenting on fragos you could probably do it in a less then a day, just split up the work..
