Brainstorm Intro

The maemo.org Brainstorm is a community tool to propose ideas and evaluate solutions to implement them. Anybody can propose ideas and solutions, rate them up or down. Thanks to this brainstorming the Maemo team at Nokia and other developers can prioritize better their tasks and select the most appropriate solutions.

For developer information about the Brainstorm tool, see the development wiki page

We use this Talk forum to discuss Brainstorm proposals. At some point the connection between Brainstorm proposals and discussion threads will be automatic. There is no automation yet so this will require Brainstormers to employ the following protocol manually:


 * 1) Member creates Brainstorm proposal (along with any solutions)
 * 2) Member captures link of that proposal and starts a new thread in the Brainstorm forum, pasting that link into the first post along with a synopsis (or perhaps the entire text of the proposal as a quote, for example)
 * 3) Member captures link of new Talk Brainstorm subforum thread, and edits Brainstorm proposal to include it. Cross pollination complete!

Threads in the Brainstorm forum MUST HAVE a related Brainstorm proposal linked. You have the rest of Talk to have free-form discussion.

Brainstorm proposals MUST HAVE a linked thread in the Brainstorm forum. Please don't use the comments feature in the Brainstorm tool, in order to avoid duplicated discussions. We will disable comments there soon.
