This forum is not only for developers.
Maybe it has been until N900 was released, but now we are talking about the normal guys, average Joes too.
You have to except that and cooperate with these guys too. Not just turning your head in other direction and closing their threads. Because that will not work. You need them and they need you. Every developer needs somebody to use his app/widget, whatever, and every average customer need app/widget etc. And how does number of posts matter?! If "thanks" matters, incude "no thanks" too, for people who can't behave.
Thanks for reading this.

I don't think it is going to ship today.

I just call them and ask when the N900 would be shipping. The rep told me by Oct. I said so by the end of this month? She said umm... maybe.. let me check my link. Sir it will most likely ship Oct. I said umm.. ok. Thanks

And they don't have any idea either.... doh.

'No thanks.' Interesting idea. Flag as objectionable etc.? Might be worthwhile. If flagged as objectionable, then any thanks could be negated, pending an appeal to be decided by moderator(s). DOes this seem like a worthwhile thing?

I found the previous closed thread sometimes informative, often frustrating, often entertaining, sometimes off-putting, but my own morals are my own and I don't wish to impose them on anyone else, for the most part.

I didn't actually realise it was not in 'Off Topic' which is where it should have been all along. Closing it was probably a little precipitous if it could have been moved, but there you are, we are a benign dictatorship, not a democracy - the forum is provided *by* someone *for* our use, IMO.

On topic:

My expansys order (UK to Canada) says 4 days, and the UK site has definitel y moved from pre-order to order and we'll ship in a couple of days mode. Thus, I am officially allowing myself to become excited, and have got my head around Python enough that my first attempt at productivity will be, well, productive soon.

benign dictatorship??? The question is not if google it’s evil, the real question should be it’s maemo evil??? I’m starting to see things here that I really don’t like.

I mean this is a forum, how can one thread be different than others?
It's about Karma.

On talk.maemo.org you get Karma points for posting and for being thanked, unless it's in the Off Topic section. It was Reggie's concern that the original thread was abused for gaining karma (and he did say so, don't know where your dissatisfaction comes from...).

Yes, benign dictatorship, I think this is the right way to go.

The question isn't about evil at all that's a red herring. Think of it this way - if someone came into your house and started pissing in the sink or drawing on the walls, would you thank them for it or ask them to stop?
