I was actually referring to end-users, being able to rate an app they have downloaded/installed as well as provide comments, both hooked to the specific version of the app, directly from the the N900.

Sure, I can help design the process. One of the missing pieces here is SSO. I haven't heard any updates on this. End-users should be able to register from their N900, and get access immediately to any maemo.org section.

From the forum admin's perspective, I can find a way to have tmo create a new thread for every released version of an app. End-users' ratings are mapped to the thread's rating, and comments are mapped to posts. I had a prototype somewhat working already before but a lot objected to it (let's not go there anymore ).

About convincing developers, well, I've learned my lesson. This 'process' should be done at background with minimal developer participation.

But then, if all the apps will be distributed via OVI, then I guess, the infrastructure is there already.
