So for example I wouldn't count the N950 as default hardware, because you can't buy it. If there would be an app requiring the N950.
Or I wouldn't count Nemo as official version of Maemo or Harmattan. If there would be an app requiring Nemo...

So I think EasyDebian, Inception and NITDroid wouldn't be a problem.
Just my opinion, though.
As they are installed by thousand of Harmattan users, I think the installation procedure is not a problem.

I think the category "Updates and development on existing apps (2 N950, 1 N9)" is not large enough to include this 3 coding projects. I suggest to :
- enlarge the number of devices for this category;
- or create a special category ("System projects" ?) with 3 devices.

Yes, a simple .deb installation for at least one of the two cases : using open mode kernel, using inception. Ideally both, but qole is currently without a developer device.

Yes.

Currently NITDroid for N9 is alpha #3, so any further version (alpha #4 or beta #1) would be a new version.
