Wow... even if I am number 19, it's pretty cool to see my name on that list!

Can you define "support"? :)

Re: 10+ Useful Posts Nokia Should Support (Fall 2008 edition)
 

Mild Support = a DEEP discount coupon or free sample n900 BEFORE public release. This would allow apps to be tailored and lessen degrees of disruption from unforseen hiccups/bugs.

Medium Support = an invitation to Maemo Summit II

Strong Support = ???

Just come to mind.... :-)

Bingo!

Strangely, maybe ironically, I wish my "#1" post could be removed from this list. The "#3" post replaces it completely. As nice as it is to get up there twice, it is really the same thing. The nature of the forums kinda forces me to start a new thread after a while because the old one becomes so long and hairy... And the announcement in #3 really was a big deal (to me at least)...

EDIT: Pay attention to #7! That app has gotten really slick in the last few weeks. I just tested it this weekend, and I can very easily (all from within a GUI) set up my associations to launch mplayer for videos, open office for word documents, sun open java for java jar and java webstart apps (jnlp)... I just tested a java web start app from my browser... it correctly launched Open Java webstart. Cool!

support: minimum that Nokia provides for projects @ maemo.org

OR

support: what bun said ^^

Re: 10+ Useful Posts Nokia Should Support (Fall 2008 edition)
 

That minimum can be obtained by any project by themselves: garage project, page in downloads, packages in extras, blog in planet...

What bun said is more or less what we plan to do, yes.

What is intresting here is the fact that you made a selection. If every quarter someone comes with a selection of the top xx discussions then I'm sure more people will catch up on those topics.
