Disagree. The past performance of the build shouldn't have any affect on an application's karma. However, see below on thoughts about -testing. > * Download numbers of applications as a factor used next to ratings Absolutely. However, like tmo posts this should probably be sqrt($downloads). > * Ohloh kudos would give a wider "appreciation rating" in the free > software world (http://www.ohloh.net/about/kudos) I think Ohloh is of little value to the small projects we've had in Maemo to date. > * Maemo Extras testing activity (voting, comments) Yup, although we're trying to encourage a "testsquad" who'll test everything so I don't know how we'd square that circle. One interesting thought: should a package *lose* karma if it gets a high number of votes UP and then ISN'T promoted to Extras? Effectively penalising a package for wasting testers' time? > * Maybe we could also dig up commits on Garage I thought developers already got karma for Garage activity (being on a project AND commiting to projects).
