You clearly didn't follow all the threads, this was discussed in-depth.
Everyone agreed they should be allowed to partake too.
Re-read the criteria, whoever was deemed to have made the biggest
contribution were to be granted a CA.
That did not EXCLUDE people who contributed through coding efforts.
Generally such efforts have the biggest impact & require far more
effort/skill/time.
So it's only logical that more of such contributors would win out over
other community contributors.
I was disappointed that I didn't win, but I know my contributions
haven't had anywhere near the impact that others on the list have had.
Have an honest look at yourself, can you honestly say the opposite?
I noticed INABT didn't make the cut, that was very surprising.
But the competition was so tight, there was always going to be some
deserving users who missed out.

there is absolutely nothing to be amused about here
and i'm not talking about Micheal's disappointment not getting a device,
as much as it put his "hitting a brick wall" statement in a questionable
light; wouldn't have minded keeping a brick i guess...
what may frustrate Micheal (and others, most likely, even thought the CA
winner list thread must already have debated this ad nauseam....) is the
fact that several if not all members of the Council won a N950;
a couple thoughts about this
no matter what personal likes or dislikes one may have for each of the
current Council member, they all made considerable contributions to the
Community and their being in the Council is but the most recent one (!)
what is maybe more questionable is that many of the CA devices were
granted on base of... missed coding competition opportunities, to put it
bluntly.
is this what this community is all about? coding?
if that's the case, Micheal's statement appears under a different light
IF NOKIA decides to pull out of Maemo, more then coding is going to be
needed to save the community...
however this may be, nothing to be laughing about...

can't help noticing that a couple weeks ago you applied for a N9
from
the CA...
would winning one have changed your opinion on the "no future" idea?
