Nope, prepaid, thanks for the heads-up. I wanted to check whether it makes any difference that I had the option since before the change but the "3" site is unresponsive as usual.

new idea: brainstorm, talk or what else?
Hi, all. I believe I have a rather nifty idea for a new app but I don't have the capabilities required to develop it myself or, most importantly, the time required to acquire them and code the app. So, I'd like to describe it and pass it on to somebody looking for an idea... question is, where and how? 1) on Brainstorm? It's not really a problem in search of a solution, I have a clear picture of what it's supposed to do. 2) on Talk? This would allow for a wide participation, but again the idea is fairly clear. Also, it's not even a "porting wish" so the wiki is also out. 3) here in maemo-developers? Seems to be the best channel, is it acceptable?

As an addition, I would like to see a button to remove the app altogether, i.e. also from devel. It happened to me that I reported a bug on an application that was removed from testing as requested by its maintainer but not from devel. Another idea that comes to my mind is the possibility of subscribing to package events: build (ok, failed, etc.), entering devel/testing/extras, demotion and so on. For example, I'd like to be notified when some of my favourite packages move into testing so that I can retest them.

Ideally, it should behave as a pipeline: a new entry in devel shouldn't reset karma/quarantine for an earlier version in testing. Only when they happen to be together in testing, you could perhaps automatically clear the earlier version from the queue and restart counting.

As one of those newcomers, I thank you again for the great job you did in conducting the marathon. I share your comments on the process, but I want to add a tiny thought: the all-together testing style left me wondering whether everybody else was checking the same issues over and over (lots of people checking /opt for a package) instead of splitting tasks to cover more ground. I guess for the future I'll adopt a few packages and keep an eye on them, makes more sense to me, though the idea of participating in the marathon was indeed a good motivator to start testing.
