I just want to point out that there's no way you can have karma if you don't have a maemo.org account. I make lots of exceptions for people who can show that they've been doing stuff for more than 3 months (most recently someone who started using Bugzilla in December but only registered for maemo.org in January), but I made it clear at the start of the election process that there was a cut-off date for having a maemo.org account, and it was the beginning of the election process.

Cheers,
Dave.
