I agree on the device amount for the competition but didn't see anyone
proposing an amount for the seeding itself. So I'm proposing 80 to get that
discussion going. That would make the total number of devices 100. I think
the seeding should be done like proposed earlier by providing a wiki page
where people willing to get one need to add their details including past,
current and planned contributions to the community. So pretty similar thing
that Quim & co. used with the meego developer device program. And then the
council decides who gets a device.

In any case I'd like to see the requirements for getting a device clearly
documented (after there's a consensus for them) to the same wiki page. So
I'd ask for Maemo.org user name with link to the profile, description of
contributions with links to those and summary of future plans. So my main
requirerement would be contributions that benefit the community. There's a
lot of stuff that be contributed to the community and they should all have
some weight. Contributions can be applications, other development, QA,
helping people, communications (think about what people behind the weekly
news are doing) or something else.

This might sound like self evident but when it comes to free gadgets the
rules need to be very clear and the instance who has the final say clearly
definded (the council). And I also agree that in no situation should one
single person be able to make the call on who gets a device or not.
Therefore I'd wait until the new council has been elected (no disrepect to
Rob intended).
