So do I.
But it finally got fixed.

I have removed gpxview from that page. It just doesn't belong there.

Can you provide a rationale for us to understand why?

It doesn't fulfil your criteria and never was meant to do so. Putting it onto that page and noting that it's not meeting those requirements imho doesn't make any sense as it was never designed to meet them. Noone even asked me to comply to these rules, so there also doesn't seem to be any user/community demand to change this.

Hence my program doesn't belong onto that list.

Not sure where I sit in all this, but I do think liqbase has the potential to be a remarkable package for the tablet (obviously..)

Hopefully we will end up with something worthwhile which uses the tablet to create data rather than just being a consumer.

At the moment its at proof of concept/playtesting stage so I've stuck myself in the alpha section at the bottom.

Yes, I was just about to mention liqbase. This seems to me to have major potential.

I think that Personal Menu should come with the default software -- to me, it's better than the stuff that Nokia developed. And the same for the large status bar clock.

A major, glamorous project that no one seems to be working on is text-to-speech. There is flite, but there should be some way of reading a text document, with a decent voice. I think this is important enough that someone at Nokia should be working on it -- I'm sure that Apple is working on an equivalent project. In many quarters there seems to be a misconception that this sort of thing is for blind people. I'm not blind; I just like to have my computer read to me. To do this now, I have to run Windows. If I had a Mac, I could run that. There is no decent reader in Linux (IMHO), which is where I spend most of my time.

Master of Gizmo, fair enough. I personally think one day it will be clear for open source developers that playing the maemo.org game is useful to reach better software quality and wider audiences. I understand if some people don't see the point today, though.

What about a "Pure R&D" subsection in the Candidates? I already had thought so with the USB Control. Alpha/beta would be intrynsical but still extras-devel (and probably not extras) and proper Download page in maemo.org would be a must.

This goes a bit beyond the point but...

Do you remember the Puppy Robots developed by Nokia in R&D mode? They do text-to-speech.

Look at https://garage.maemo.org/projects/robot/ (including open source package) and contact the developers if you are interested in knowing more.

No, it appears that the project was last updated in 2006. Would those people still be hanging around waiting for an email from me?

I insist, contact the developers if you are interested in knowing more.
