A question for Quim: the current link for Brainstorm defaults to fremantle. I understand that is the general focus, but should http://maemo.org/community/brainstorm/ always resolve automatically to http://maemo.org/community/brainstor...eas/fremantle/ ? What if we want to brainstorm about possibilities at a higher (or even lower) level?

This thread has the sole purpose of bootstrapping the Brainstorm forum and will be closed once we are done.

If you have questions about the use of this forum ask them here. We reckon things are not fluent or well documented at this point.

We need supermoderator powers to move here the following threads:

Thank you!

I was thinking about moving here the threads discussing in free-form the Brainstorm tool itself. I tend to think that it's better to keep those in the Community forum (where all the maemo.org related discussions are handled) in order to have this forum only to pure Brainstorm proposals. Except the sticky thread (that will have only the first post once we are done with it) and this own thread (that will be closed or even deleted when the bootstrapping is complete).

To anybody commenting here: once we have finished the drafting of the sticky topic all the comments will be deleted. You're warned.

Landing in Brainstorm

Here is another brainstorm thread:

Fast application launcher like quicksilver/gnome do
http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?p=351169

Sticky edited to provide more context and instructions.

This link is quite weird, Quim,:

http://maemo.org/community/brainstor...in_brainstorm

Which one is the correct one?

EDIT: found it: http://maemo.org/community/brainstor...in_brainstorm/

EDIT2: I see the error now The forum is shortening and adding "..." to the link, you copied&pasted it with the dots.
So, although mine shows dots, the actual link does not.

I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask this, but I'm having some problems in editing this post:

http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=33259

I added the tag [Sandbox] in the title. In "Preview Changes" it is there, but when I click "Save Changes" there is no change in the actual title. However, when I try to edit it again, it is there. Am I doing something wrong?

Nothing wrong from your side. Apparently only moderators can edit the topic of a thread. Done.

Hmm... Has something changed in Brainstorm or is it some kind of malfunction? There seems to be the possibility to vote for the idea now, which is really good. However, voting for solutions has disappeared, including all the votes cast for them. Is this done purposely?

Sorry for not answering before, last week was more than hectic.

Now proposals in the Sandbox need a minimum of votes and at least one solution proposed (?) before being promoted automatically to Under Consideration. Solutions can be voted only when their proposals are Under Consideration. This way there is more time to propose solutions while being in Sandbox. Voters see as an average more solutions to evaluate, and not only the first one.
