A billion thanks jacobkorf and lukash for the pledges, I'll add them to the lists. I'll send you everyone a pm, jacobkorf, when we get the paypal situation sorted

We're at $365, getting close to the magic $400. Then onto the magic $500, then the magic $1000000.. then.. then.. then.. then we're going to scrap the competition and buy Nokia instead! Please keep some suggestions coming in about how you would like to see the bounty split. I might run a poll on it if the discussion stays quiet, it's just to have some sort of consencus on it.

Thanks again Lukash, for getting our details on the Czech website.

Gosh.. i had no idea we weren't the first! Nobody wanted to tell us until now and spoil our fun I guess Well.. ok we're not the first one but we're the next first one hehe

Should we use a private paypal account, if it doesn't work with the maemo.org one?
We need to open donations as soon as possible.
Thanks for sending another mail. He's posted today in the forums, hopefully he's just behind on his mails

I wonder if there's some way we can push it, perhaps in the community section or brainstorm section? TBH I never venture much into there, Im not sure if a maemo.org paypal counts.. I guess it might. What do you think?

I agree we need to turn pledges into donations as soon as possible, I'd like to get something sorted or moving by the end of the month, else we'll do it privately just to keep the show on the road.. so to speak End of the month might help people too with pay days etc.

By the way, do you think we should set up a maemo.org competition repository for the entrants' applications?
