I'm not sure why the app was approved with that name?

The BS should be removed, replaced with 'Meeting Bingo'?
'You're fired! Bingo' seems okay.

But seriously, those app names can give bad press to the Maemo open source community.

This would be a pretty funny game to see played in a meeting, although I'm pretty sure it might result in some unpleasantness after the game was over. Did some Nokia devs get bored in a meeting about multitasking?

P.S. Would Apple have allowed this app?

Did it get taken down? Or did your URL get censored? When I click on the URL I get an Error 404.

that's b/c the the site as a filter so parts of the URL got censored so URL got broke.

IMO the app-name is named appropriately based on the spirit of the game which I found hilarious and within the Maemo-Extras guidelines for questionable content.

I don't think this would generate bad-press. Bad-press is what Apple is getting for its excessive control on the app-approval process. the last time I checked, the popular fart applications generated a lot of good-press.
