So what exactly does testing imply?
Just checking that it installs and seems to do what it is supposed to?
Or does the tester need to check, e.g., that it is properly optified?

A clear check list for unexperienced testers would be a good idea?
As well as a guide for how the phone should be set up as that will affect battery life?
I for one wouldn't have a clue how to tell if something has been optified?
edit - just seen previous link..

What about creattng a maemo-testers mailing list as an in-between of maemo-developers and maemo-users?
This might be handy to have a forum just about testing, where testers can ask if something is unclear and developers can explain, ask for more details, annnounce new apps and demand testers. Would streamline the process and improve communications, which currently happen inside the comments section of extras-testing.

Apps are getting getting backlog back to September.
Over the past few days, the number of apps entering extras-testing has been roughly 5-10 apps/version everyday. I think there's only about 10-20 people doing the commenting and voting so far => major backlog.
I don't see a lot of people voting or commenting on the apps so would appreciate if you have spare time to check out that page, write a few short comments to improve the apps which you will see in Extras.
