Hi,

I wonder if the implementation of Brainstorm was just done wrong in the first 
place (as initially proven by how many people submitted ideas without solutions 
attached).

To me, it seems like Brainstorm should consist of single-level ideas/issues 
that can be voted upon... Then, the discussion of such ideas/issues may or may 
not include solutions (some half-baked, some not), which are not voted upon.

Then, either an independent dev, or someone at Nokia could claim the idea/issue 
if there are enough votes and act on it -- either by using the discussion as a 
"guide," or going about it in their own way.

Afterall, the idea/issue is the important factor, not the various solutions... 
Sometimes, the solution providers know absolutely nothing about what it would 
take to implementat said solution (I'll add myself to that group), and 
sometimes, solution providers really come up with some gems.

But, I'm proposing that the solutions should be presented in the form of casual 
discussion, not formal answers. Then, whomever thinks they can solve the item 
in question can claim it and begin work -- maybe even by adding it to Bugzilla 
with a proposed milestone date. When the item is complete -- by an independent 
dev or by a Maemo dev -- the Brainstorm item is closed (as is the Bugzilla 
item).

Hope that made sense.

Tim
