This morning my calendar told me there’s a new year available, so I created some quick & dirty statistics for my favorite bug databases: maemo.org Bugzilla 2009 stats GNOME Bugzilla 2009 stats
Great to see the interest on Maemo in the last weeks. As expected, traffic in the forum, in Bugzilla and in Brainstorm has increased impressively.Discussions have been taking place (with regard to Bugzilla for example here or here) how to make infrastructure work out better for users, with some good proposals. I am also impressed [...]
I’m proudly announcing the first maemo.org Bugday:
Tuesday, Dec 15th, 18:00-03:00 UTCin #maemo-bugs on Freenode IRC
This is a nice way to get involved if you are a fan of the Maemo platform and the N900, but cannot or do not want to write code for example.
Bugdays are about hanging out together on IRC, triaging/discussing some reports [...]
Incoming reports in the last weeks
As I’m quite busy with the normal “Triaging and Syncing” business already (as seen above, a first increase of bug reports happened right after Maemo Summit in week 41, but I expect way busier times ahead) Karsten concentrates on technical stuff. It’s good to have him back as now stuff [...]
After spending three holidays in Amsterdam (rainy but still a wonderful time) we moved from our hotel to the Openismus apartment on the evening before the summit started. Great to see the friends/colleagues again, plus only 5 minutes of walking to the venue.
As my laptop had died directly after arriving in Amsterdam this was a [...]
It’s the beginning of October and one year ago I started working fulltime as maemo.org Bugmaster (after I had started together with Karsten in May 2008).Where are we and what are the plans?

The Nokia N900 is more targeted to the mass market than any of the Nokia Internet Tablets before. This means that Maemo will see new users, with different levels of knowledge, and involvement.Some will just use their device and will not be interested in contact with other users.Some will ask questions on mailing lists or [...]
As Maemo 5 (Fremantle) gets closer I’m worried about
Nokia implementing a buggy untested “3rd party policy” without having a dialog with the maemo.org community before. It was again the community running into problems and then finding out about it. Very annoying that Nokia does not learn to do better.
Documentation for developers.
It is unclear which widgets [...]
Haven't seen much blogging about the Mozilla/Maemo Danish Weekend yet - here we go.
After meeting at the airport with Lauri Võsandi (who works on Bittorrent support in Canola as part of Google's Summer of Code) and quickly getting a shower in the hotel, we went to the café of the ...
How up to date are the bug reports?
There's currently only 5 open non-moreinfo Apps/Platform tickets left with version field set to a version earlier than 4.0.
That's quite cool because it means that there's nearly no non-updated bugs left about Bora or earlier - stuff that's not being worked on anymore ...
