That's good news too, though I really wish they had arranged their competition for a different time.

If we'd have had some advanced notice perhaps we could have integrated both competitions and complimented each other a little better, but oh well.. maybe next time

It is actually a continuation of a local "Be Qt" competition that ran before the Openmobility 2012 conference on the 21 of April in Prague. After the winners were announced at the end of the conference, there was already some talk about doing another round.

Other than that, I think both competitions are quite different (voting vs decision by jury, only new applications in Qt/QML for Harmattan vs much broader possibilities, etc.) anyway.

I think their are, but not very active + more interested in Harmattan than Fremantle. Thats why I'm basically doing a liaison in this case.

Thanks! ( I'm actually also a member of the Openmobility NCO, just not part of the team that is organizing the competition.

Good point, I'll see what can be done (most likely at least a short article about the competition

).

We actually don't have a forum and use a jabber MUC for most of the communication. The MUC is on conf@openmobility.cz and everybody is welcome to drop by.
