MWKN Weekly News: 11 June 2012


maemo.org Coding Competition begins this week

The tradition of a community-run coding competition for Maemo and Meego devices continues this year.
Beginning Monday 11th June, and running for 3 months, new applications for Maemo and MeeGo Harmattan devices (and significant updates to existing ones) will be eligible to enter in this years competition. Whether you are an experienced developer or a beginner on your very first application, we have a category that suits you and your application!
Nokia has generously donated 14 N950s and 11 N9s that we will assign to the winners and runner ups across the various categories. There will also be a community bounty made up of individual donations which will also be shared out amongst the best placed entries.
Entry is free, so all interested developers of all skill levels are encouraged to participate.

There is an error in this issue: Saera isn't for Harmattan, it's for Fremantle only. It's correct in the header, though.

That would have been nice, but the above URL says:
Any member of maemo.org can self-nominate to receive one device, from the Community Awards program. Accepting submissions will start at Monday, 28 May, 00:00 UTC, and will last for 3 weeks.
which I guess would make it until 2012/06/17 23:59:59 UTC.

I got that June 12th date from somewhere. I wonder if it was the mailing list. Specifying the end date in weeks-from-this-day is rather obnoxious. :\ Oh well, obviously needs correction.

Thanks!
