I simply copy pasted the first post, additional details may be added as you please.
Let me know if you need help with it.

I've added a small table, so we can take trace of what developers are developping :)

Thanks zehjotkah, are you confident in it and that there's no hidden fees or anything?

Great Job!

It's a great suggestion, actually that's what I did yesterday. I asked one of the mods who is on the council but still waiting to hear back from him :(

If any others on the council are reading and would like to volunteer..? :)

I'm not developing any application until PR1.2 is released. Too many unknowns.

yes, I am.
can you make it clear now, if one of the councils will be the treasurer then I have to give him the account on chipin, before anyone donates.

was nice to see a lot of positivity in this thread , with tons of time wasting threads getting so ever popular.

sorry to say, but quite an unnecessary post to let us know. :rolleyes:

Anyways to answer that question/concern, you could always develop your applications even now without PR1.2, treat that as just another update.
Even if you want to develop using cutting edge stuff like QT4.6 that comes default with PR1.2 there are ways to go about it with PR1.1.
PR1.2 shouldn't stop life , really ! . Once that comes, what is it next , meego :) ?

Im afraid im still waiting to hear back, though if someone donates in the meantime then that'll take the decision out of it :)

I'll send him a gentle bump pm.

Fantastic Kojacker, looks like its taken off. ;) I'll post news of the compo in the Gp32x forums too, loads of devs already there so hopefully it'll bring even more interest, especially with Nokia's great contribution to the prizes! Great! :)

A good e-book reader would be nice. mGutenberg is awesome but it loses my place from time to time. FBreader doesn't do finger taps from time to time making it a pain to go back and forth.
