Hi there, General answer to anybody concerned about getting or not a discount code (and please don't quote me): this is like sex, the more you are self-conscious and concerned the more your risk to fail. Just relax and keep sharing your maemo love. :)

We are helping maemo users to link to their alter egos, so we are asking about your SF profile if you want to provide it. It looks like http://sourceforge.net/users/YourId and it tells at least the projects you are involved in SF. Fair enough. > My application only occur in the Application Catalog. The idea is to integrate all the data retrievable from the *.maemo.org services and show it in your profile (if you wish). I don't know how far we can go before the end of the N810 maemo device program but it's not the thing that worries me more either. We have gone through two device programs without user profiles. We are developing the user profiles per se, not only because of this program. > * How can I better promote my application in this case? Can I make a > garage project page for my application? Would this make sense? We need to help developers promoting their applications in any case, yes. Go through the Quality Awareness checklist, offer your packages in extras, offer a nice product page in downloads.maemo.org with screenshots and detailed description, make sure at least your friends try your software and comment on it, offer channels for feedback, write news or blog about it... Having a project in Garage helps, yes. Note that there is software for maemo that is not following almost any of the previous steps and yet it is popular and successful, so don't take this as a single rule. > The Application Catalog still seems to be horribly broken. I wouldn't be so tough bu in any case let's evaluate http://downloads.maemo.org once we have implemented the round of improvements to be released one of these days.
