Sorry, man, the ante is four cents. :) So much for a tidy email list of just serious, seasoned, developers. Heh.
That sound you hear is one lip gloating.... On 7/24/07, Richard Reichenbacher <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
According to the wiki there's about 2300 phone orders and the number increases every day. There's some 75-100 people that have posted on the wiki in the P1 owners category. Given, not every developer has contributed to the P1 owners page so there's probably about 300 people or so that follow the wiki and haven't posted in it. Leaving about 2000 orders to people that don't follow the wiki and are probably not interested in developing. If they were interested in developing, they would follow the wiki as it is the only source for finding development specs, cvs links, walkthroughs, etc. That's a pretty large amount of people that are going to want help building openmoko and flashing it to the phone. I think a forum is a good idea for now if anytime. If we can show that there is a great support base available for the phone this early on we can draw a much larger fan base later on.

Well, it splits the community into two subcommunities. The number of users that will bother to use both forms of communication will probably be small. Additionally there is currently no need for "customer"-level communications at the moment. What will you answer? Considering the fact that many features are still not completely stable, and many features are completely missing. So what can you answer truthfully to some troll that wants to know if the phone will support syncing with Outlook 97? Will it support push mail? Is it better than the iPhone? Bluntly speaking, creating an enduser support forum is something that is the job of FIC, isn't it?
