The '''100 Days Action Plan''' brainstorm for maemo.org has covered its first objective and now the list of proposal is closed. Now the help is needed in the committed tasks listed below. The strategic brainstorm continues at [[2010_Agenda|maemo.org 2010]].
-
* Avoid asking for end-user applications unless there's a good reason why it needs to be tied into the underlying OS
+
-
* Don't put things which isn't feasible in 3 months

==Get the server and bandwidth infrastructure up to speed==
+
=Agreed tasks=
-
*Mirror the repository.maemo.org to ensure good uptime.
+
-
*Mirror tablets-dev.nokia.com to ensure good uptime.
+
-
*Improve the hardware and bandwidth availability behind *.maemo.org to ensure quick response—maemo.org is too slow!
+
-
== Internet Tablet Talk Syndication ==
+
== Defining maemo ==
-
* Provide an automatic way to re-list applications at the Internet Tablet Talk Software Section (itTSS).
+
{{main|Task:Defining maemo}}
-
* Each application (version) that is re-listed at Internet Tablet Talk, starts a new thread in the forums so end-users get notified of new apps as well as provide a way to give feedback to the developers. Developers themselves can also join in the discussion. This hope to help better the quality of applications.
+
Crystal-clear definitions of maemo, maemo.org, OS2008 and so on.
-
* Provide a way for developers to easily add a bug at the application's Garage page for confirmed bugs reported in the discussion thread.
+
-
== Update developer libraries ==
+
[[User:Qgil|qgil]] coordinates this task. Not included in the Sprint 1 (June) but you can start helping out now.
-
* gcc-4.x, glib, powervr, it's important to give developers much more time to play with newer tools than short before a major upgrade takes place (of course with disclaimer that nothing is guaranteed to be shipped in a certain way)
+
-
== Ship high level building blocks ==
+
==Fast server==
-
* Think of media server, VoIP, contact lists, camera, GPS localization. Currently developers only have the low level API's, while mostly they just want a widget that displays the mentioned data and listen to user interaction signal or device signals. This also makes these functionalities look the same in all applications using them
+
{{main|Task:Fast Server}}
 +
Browsing and downloading from maemo.org should be simply fast. No excuses.
-
== Focus developers and users on the right channels ==
+
Nemein will work on this task. More details to come.
-
* Today we have too many channels (ITT, maemo.org...). Maybe have some more focus like: maemo.org for developers and ITT for end users and something that link they so software releases can be announced automatically on ITT and users from ITT can easily post bugs on garage bugzilla for example.
+
-
* garage.maemo projects should constrain redundant communication channels. If no developer looks to the garage bugzilla (because everybody should use the central bugs.maemo.org bugzilla) there should not be none. The same thing with the forum and news section. But if a section is still in use it should be available.
+
== Mapping openness ==
 +
{{main|Task:Mapping openness}}
 +
* Identifying closed-source components and the reasons why, addressing the community's concerns over openness.
-
== Beautify maemo.org ==
+
[[User:Qgil|qgil]] coordinates this task. Not included in the Sprint 1 (June) but you can start helping out now.
-
* Maemo.org can benefit from some face lifting - right now on 1280x1024 (this resolution seems to be very common to developers) only half of the real screen estate is used. With some loose block positioning both 800x480 and bigger resolutions can be supported. Maybe even specialized tablet finger-friendly look for those preferring it.
+
-
* More relevant information displayed on front page, preferably customizable blocks like Netvibes and iGoogle. Since the content is gzipped, that won't be too harming to the traffic. Blocks can be optionally auto updated for those that like to keep their browser pages open (and if Prizm is ported - even in the tray). For instance new bugs section with voting on the fly will boost bugzilla usage.
+
-
== Improve Documentation ==
+
== [http://www.internettablettalk.com Internet Tablet Talk] Collaboration ==
-
* Provide a better guide / ruleset for developers
+
{{main|Task:ITt Collaboration}}
-
** Define types of applications that will be useful on the Internet Tablet
+
maemo.org and ITt services should integrate much better i.e. maemo.org Downloads syndicated in ITt and ITt users getting maemo.org [[karma]].
-
** Stress the fact that the Internet Tablet is not a PC and apps should be created/ported with the tablet form in mind. Don't just do a direct port of an existing app. Aim for quality and Internet Tablet usablity.  
+
 
-
** Focused discussion/guide on User Interface so apps will have a consistent look as well as provide a similar way to interface with the user
