Karma is a measure of the activity of Maemo community members. Several factors are taken into account when counting a user's karma measurement, including:

  • Having a maemo.org account
  • Posting to core Maemo mailing lists
  • Commenting or rating Maemo news items, blog posts or products
  • Joining Garage groups related to products
  • Maintaining products on the Garage
  • Writing blog posts
  • Opening new bugs
  • In the old wiki, creating new wiki pages

Each of these is weighted according to the activity to give the final karma total for a user. The maemo.org deployment of Midgard uses a different set of weights.

Weights

The karma calculation for each of these is calculated as follows:

  • maemo.org account: 3 points
  • Blog post: Blog posts are scored 1 + [number of favourites for post) - (number of buries for post)
  • Products: A product is defined as a release of a project for a specific Maemo release. Thus, if you maintain versions of your software for Bora and Diablo, you will double your karma for the project. A product is scored 1 + its average star rating ("price"), multiplied by the product modifier (7 on maemo.org). Thus, "MaemoPad+" has an average star rating of around 4.5, giving a karma weighting of 31.5 to its author, User:Disq, for each version he maintains.
  • Discussion: 1 point per post to a core mailing list - maemo-developer, maemo-user or maemo-community
  • Comments and favourites: Two points per comment, one per favourite and one per bury
  • Groups: 3 points per group
