N900 developers - 9 days left for Nokia's Calling all innovators competition.
Hi all, Nokia's Call All Innovators competition closes in 9 days (including one weekend!), and it has a section devoted to the best N900 application with a prize of $50,000. Additionally, the competition organizers will help the top submissions get onto the Ovi Store, which now supports paid content. So, in addition to the possibility to win prizes, there is a chance to earn some money. If you have an innovative idea in the areas of Eco/Being Green, Entertainment, Life Improvement, or Productivity, enter the competition. The measurement criteria are quality, uniqueness, commercial viability, and usability. Looking at the innovation in extra-devel, an N900 application would have a real shot at winning the main prize in one of these categories too. So, check out www.callingallinnovators.com and submit your application before midnight (EDT) on 10 June 2010; the clock is ticking.. Regards, Ronan.

I just want to tell the existing applications to handle contacting a given number/user and show the right UI. I assume that is what happens now between the contacts application (and/or call log application) and the call application. I successfully handled to start a call using the cellular modem (com.nokia.csd.Call.CreateWith), start the call number UI (com.nokia.CallUI.CreateCall), start the email UI (com.nokia.modest.MailTo) and start sms UI (com.nokia.MessagingUI.messaging_ui_interface_start_sms) but can't find anything to handle skype connections.

Barrage for N900
I already tried sending an e-mail about this but I received no response. There is this game called 'Barrage' in the repositories that has missing dependencies for the N900. I fixed that version by fixing the dependencies. It works very well with my N900. The original author said he wasn't interested in touching this so I have permission: https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7962 I tried uploading to extras. I set up SSH correctly but apparently I also need to set up scratchbox and I just don't have time to learn how to do that too. I tried asking someone to upload it for me, but apparently you need the source code to upload. I only have a fixed .deb file. I am no coder. I only editted the dependencies and incremented the version number to 1.0.3-4. Is there any way to upload it only for fremantle and leave the other version for chinook/diablo.

RE: Qt Autorotation
Hi, It seems to me that this is an unintended positive side effect instead of a planned requirement. I pass the mainwindow pointer to my dialog constructors and this should set the parent. By reading the documentation setParent should be quite useless in this scenario because I would be changing the parent to the exact same one assigned previously. I believe it just happens to work because setParent will hide the just created dialog and then when you call exec or show it will probably trigger the window manager recognizing this window as part of an autorotation application and adjusting it accordingly. Regardless, it was a good catch. It will probably help saving a bunch of useless lines of code trying to remedy this issue and hopefully on a new release it will be fixed so we don't need to artificially reset the parent to make the manager adjust the window. I would say that it is probably worth reporting this as a bug on the qt/nokia web site. Have you reported it?

Thanks for sending this Ram. I've been too busy to follow it up since I found out about it.

Is this known and somebody already working on it ? Perhaps Ive missed to see a mail or two. Not able to promote anything on this past few days. I presume it's just promotion that is affected, but all the same, it would be nice to have this resolved. (I'd love to not use non-free, but I really don't have the time to learn how to fix my packaging at the moment...)

changes to user shells on drop.maemo.org (how this relates to extras and the builder)
Hello, We received reports about the autobuilder being stuck. Niels has fixed the problem, but I needed to change the default shell settings on drop.maemo.org. You may ask why? Well, the reason is simple: If a person had __no__ extras invitation before, but opened a project using git, then he / she suddenly got granted with extras upload privileges. This is bad, because our intentions are to keep these two services separated. Luckily all uploads are traceable, since authentication happens with ssh keys. So security wise it was not such a big deal. Extras uploaders should request the upload rights via email, that's the standard procedure. Git users can have git over ssh by simply uploading their public ssh key via: https://garage.maemo.org/account/ . (I know that git over ssh is not really working for all of us at the moment. There is an other issue and I am working on it.) In case you face problems while uploading to extras or to the builder, then it might be due these latest changes. If so, then I apologize for the inconvenience and kindly ask you to drop an email to Niels and myself asap. Thanks for your time.

[ANN] maemo-scrobber 1.0 for last.fm + libre.fm
Hi, maemo-scrobbler is a scrobbler application (last.fm/libre.fm) for the Nokia N900 that listens for events coming from the official media player app through MAFW. You can configure your accounts through the control panel. The inspiration (and some code) comes from mafw-lastfm which does basically the same thing, but lacks some features. For more on mafw-lastfm see below. Compared to mafw-lastfm, maemo-scrobbler has: 1) Support for multi-scrobbling (both last.fm and libre.fm at the same time) Includes a song queue per service. 2) Improved song queue handling Since internally it uses libscrobble (which is independent of MAFW), the important code can be easily tested on desktop sw, and it has been done so… throughly. It doesn’t matter how flaky your network is, or that the servers are down, the songs will be submitted. 3) Permanent storage The song queue is not lost, even on crashes, device reboots, or software updates. 4) Video clips are ignored Small feature, but important. In other words: maemo-scrobbler Just Works™ ;) It's now on extras testing, please give it a try and vote up: http://maemo.org/packages/view/maemo-scrobbler/ For more info and the source code, check github: http://wiki.github.com/felipec/maemo-scrobbler/ == mafw-lastfm == Initially I tried to improve mfaw-lastfm, but I noticed so many problems that I decided to start from scratch, and soon I had all the functionality I wanted. Then I brought up all the problems to the mailing list [1], and I tried to contribute to mafw-lastfm [2], some trivial patches got in, but the important ones [3] did not. That was back in February, and at that point Claudio (the maintainer) decided to wait until a stable release (0.0.4), which was done in April. We are now in June and I haven't heard anything. So I decided to implement the missing pieces and provide what IMO is supperior software (at the very least it does what I need, and hopefully you would like it too). Cheers.

Re: [mafw-lastfm-devel] [ANN] maemo-scrobber 1.0 for last.fm + libre.fm
Felipe, Allow me to reply starting from one of your last your statements: On Thu, 2010-06-03 at 03:46 +0300, Felipe Contreras wrote: We are now in June and I haven't heard anything. This is just not true. To your inquire back in April, this is what I replied: https://garage.maemo.org/pipermail/mafw-lastfm-devel/2010-April/77.html I thought you'd follow up with what I commented as the two main reasons why I didn't consider libscrobble at that point yet, but since you didn't I just continued fixing issues in my code as time allowed. 1) Support for multi-scrobbling (both last.fm and libre.fm at the same time) Includes a song queue per service. I haven't worked on this yet, because I was fixing other issues that were more important. I list them below, even when I am sure that you know already. 2) Improved song queue handling Since internally it uses libscrobble (which is independent of MAFW), the important code can be easily tested on desktop sw, and it has been done so… throughly. It doesn’t matter how flaky your network is, or that the servers are down, the songs will be submitted. I have fixed all the issues with the network handling for at least a month now (these were released in 0.0.5). I also implemented support for scrobbling behind proxies[1], which is in a branch in gitorious waiting to get some testing from users. 3) Permanent storage The song queue is not lost, even on crashes, device reboots, or software updates. I have also implemented permanent storage during last week and it's working fine. I am planning to do a release including this during this week, but I was waiting for some translations to come in first [2]. 4) Video clips are ignored Small feature, but important. In the same email I link above, I replied to you that I wasn't against implementing this if there was broader interest from users. Since I didn't get much more feedback on this regard it was low in my priorities. [...] Then I brought up all the problems to the mailing list [1], and I tried to contribute to mafw-lastfm [2], some trivial patches got in, but the important ones [3] did not. That was back in February, and at that point Claudio (the maintainer) decided to wait until a stable release (0.0.4), which was done in April. We are now in June and I haven't heard anything. Well, as I said already, I told you clearly what were my concerns regarding libscrobble. Instead of following up on the discussion, you preferred to go your own way and implement yet another scrobbler. Good on you. So I decided to implement the missing pieces and provide what IMO is supperior software (at the very least it does what I need, and hopefully you would like it too). I don't how to take this. Unfortunately, I was waiting for your feedback on my comments. I apologize if you were expecting something different. I don't know if it was necessary for you to go your own way and implement your own scrobbler, but in the end it's up to you. In a normal case I'd be glad to see alternative software, because competition is healthy, but in this case I find it a bit ridiculous – it's such a small software that it barely makes sense to offer people two different ones that in the end will obviously do the same. But that's your way, and you're free to do it.
