Beginner's will be part of both Tofe. So a beginner would align their application with one of the main 5 categories when they enter it, and also at the same time mark it as a beginner entry. We'll pick up the submission and enter it into both categories. Think of it as a little extra incentive to get new developers onboard the Maemo train.

In regards to the competition, a beginner is someone who is releasing their first Maemo/MeeGo/etc application during the competition time frame. Here's the full 'beginner rule':

•Coding competition entries marked as beginner will also automatically be entered into the beginners contest if they meet the following criteria: entries to the beginners competition must be the authors first released coding project(s) for the Maemo and MeeGo Harmattan platforms, and must have been first released between the competition start and end dates.

I notice you have listed QSyncDAV as a non-beginner entry on the wiki table, do you feel you should change it? Or was your query a more general one?
