Let's hope the table keeps growing and growing over the coming weeks
Indeed the table has been growing A big welcome (and thanks) to taixzo, ayushkedia, Taziff, artohyv, piggz, rcolistete, sakya, ivanph, kunal_the_one, and brahim98 for adding their names to the wiki over the past week or so - we've 22 on there now, so it's a great start but we always have room for more! Also great to see some new names and some long time friends of the competition back again too

in terms of the bounty, we have around €380.00 collected so far and we're still collecting up til the end so that will grow - thank you everyone for being so generous! We'll have to decide how to split the eventual amount up, so what do you all reckon?

Here's our categories and prizes again (leaving out Felipe's award for best n900 app for the moment):

•Desktop, System & Utilities (2 N950, 2 N9)
•Games, Graphics & Multimedia (2 N950, 2 N9)
•Network & Communications (2 N950, 2 N9)
•Location & Navigation (2 N950, 2 N9)
•Other (2 N950, 2 N9)
•Updates and development on existing apps (2 N950, 1 N9)
•Beginners (made up of entries from the 5 main categories) (2 N950)

I think traditionally we've focused on giving the bounty share to the runners up who maybe wouldn't win a device. We have so many devices this time we have enough even for 4th place in some categories.

So.. first question, we have 7 categories so should we split the bounty pot equally into 7 smaller pots as a beginning?

Second question, should we use for the members who don't win any device, or use it to award the winners who do?

It probably won't be a very large amount awarded to each person, but it's still important we spend your money responsibly ofcourse, so I'm keen to hear your thoughts.
