-	~~=== Proposals for Fremantle Stars ===~~
-	~~List your proposals below. Add your comments supporting/against. Provide links to their pages at http://maemo.org/downloads to get more information, see screenshots and try them out.~~
-
-	~~==== Release quality ====~~
-
-	* [http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/mauku/ Mauku]: The micro-blogging client for Maemo devices
-	~~: Mauku was proposed earlier by someone, but was not available in Extras that time. Now it is, and thus, Mauku fulfills all requirements listed above.~~
-	* [http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/maemopadplus/ Maemopad+]: pressure-sensitive sketching, available in Extras, now in development again with focus on fixing Usability issues and finger-friendliness
-	*[http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/maemo-mapper Maemo Mapper] [[Image:Star.png]]: Most downloaded application for Maemo. Best map application. Can interact with lots of different mapping sites, including OpenStreetmap.
-	*[http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/numptyphysics Numpty Physics] [[Image:Star.png]]: This game is educational, hard, fun. Made for the stylus.
-	~~: Any ideas for features making the most from an Internet connection? Adding (optionally) the online dimension would be phantastic.--[[User:qgil\|qgil]] 06:35, 23 October 2008 (UTC)~~
-	~~:: High scores, level/content download, maybe co-op gameplay. —[[User:generalantilles\|GeneralAntilles]] 08:48, 24 October 2008 (UTC)~~
-	: I've started working on online aspect for NP including level download and submission, demo recording and upload etc though obviously the amount of work to get this up and running, especially on the web side, is not insignificant. Need more levels too. In short, an injection of manpower could get NP polished and shiny but I personally am very short on spare time these days. —[[User:tim_edmonds\|Tim]] 08:48, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
-	* [http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/scummvm/ ScummVM]: Point-and-click adventures are great for touchscreens, some free-as-in-beer games are available (Beneath a Steel Sky, etc..)
-	~~: This is an enabler. A user can't do much twith this alone. What about proposing a specific game (or set of games) using ScummVM? --[[User:qgil\|qgil]] 06:35, 23 October 2008 (UTC)~~
-	~~:: As mentioned above, Beneath a Steel Sky, Flight of the Amazon Queen, etc. —[[User:generalantilles\|GeneralAntilles]] 08:50, 24 October 2008 (UTC)~~
-	* [http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/gpodder/ gPodder]: Finger-friendly UI, highlights the Internet aspect of the tablets (download podcasts); regular releases, many Maemo-specific UI changes; performance issues are worked on; tablet-related podcasts exist (example: [http://www.talkshoe.com/talkshoe/web/talkCast.jsp?masterId=27204&cmd=tc]) - downloading podcasts directly on the mobile device is a thing that you can with Nokia's tablets and gPodder, but not with iPhone/iPod touch right now
-	*[http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/xournal Xournal] [[Image:Star.png]]: A great notes/sketch utility. One of ''few'' apps that utilize the pressure sensitivity of the screen! Invaluable to create and annotate PDF documents on a pocket computer.
-	* [http://www.pimlico-project.org/index.html Pimlico]: PIM applications
-	* [http://clay.ll.pl/osmo Osmo]: PIM solution supporting open standards (SyncML, iCal)
-	* [http://tarot.freeshell.org/leafpad/ Leafpad]: for notes taking (and script programming)
-	~~: Too geeky for this call. --[[User:qgil\|qgil]] 06:35, 23 October 2008 (UTC)~~
-	* [http://www.gnome.org/projects/gnumeric/ Gnumeric]: spreadsheet application
-	: Impressing users with a spreadheet editor? Don't get me wrong, I see the usefulness of the application but we are looking for more shiny things in this call.--[[User:qgil\|qgil]] 06:35, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
-	* [http://www.abisource.com/ Abiword]: document editor
-	: Any thoughts on adding the real time collaborative editing feature? Still, perhaps this is another tool clearly useful but not really impressive for desktop users - nor seems to be taking many advantages of the Maemo 5 features.--[[User:qgil\|qgil]] 06:35, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
-	:: Perhaps it lacks glitz, but it seems to me that an Office-compatible text editor might mean quite a bit to a lot of users (heck, a decent word processor of ''any'' sort is likely to make a lot of people happy). —[[User:generalantilles\|GeneralAntilles]] 08:52, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
-	* [http://pidgin.garage.maemo.org/ Pidgin]: for instant messaging
-	* [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/748 Greasemonkey] support?
-	~~: Another enabler. It would be better to have an impressing candidate based on Greasemonkey. --[[User:qgil\|qgil]] 06:35, 23 October 2008 (UTC)~~
-	~~:: [http://browser-extras.garage.maemo.org/downloads_os2008.html browser-extras for OS2008]~~
-	* [http://pymaemo.garage.maemo.org/ PyMaemo]
-	~~: PyMaemo is great, but it says nothing per se to users. --[[User:qgil\|qgil]] 06:35, 23 October 2008 (UTC)~~
-	*[http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/maemo-wordpy Maemo WordPy] [[Image:Star.png]]: Blogging software that hooks to WordPress and Blogger accounts, allows image uploads, post creating and editing, tagging. Especially notable for its finger-friendly menu.
-	* [http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/quiver/ quiver]: image viewer
-	* [http://www.fbreader.org/ FBReader]: e-book reader. Great functionality, but the UI is a bit clunky (file dialogs are not Hildonized, preferences dialogs are overwhelmingly complicated, there's no smooth touch scrolling).
-	* [https://wiki.mozilla.org/Fennec Fennec]: Mozilla Firefox-based browser made specifically for mobile devices & touch screens. Currently (23 oct 2008) in Alpha phase.
-	* [http://www.v7f.eu/public/n800/chess/ Eboard and crafty chess engine] port of the [http://www.bergo.eng.br/eboard/ eboard] chess program. Main goal is playing on [http://www.freechess.org fics] against other human players. Analysis or games vs. engine are possible to. Can handle .pgn files and looks better than the chess "application" which is installed at the tablet after flashing the firmware.
-
-	~~==== Alpha/Beta quality ====~~
-	*[http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/osm2go/ osm2go]: This is a tool to '''create''' maps. It makes use of the hirez (touch) screen, a permanent internet connection for up- and download and the GPS of course. No such tool seems to exist for any other mobile plattform.
-	: Very interesting. Any way to make this a plugin of the very popular Maemo Mapper? Imagine that users would just use the maps, having the ability to go for an "editing mode" by pressing a key.--[[User:qgil\|qgil]] 08:14, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
-	::Sure, that's planned to happen soon. Currently not planned as a plugin (does MM support plugins?) but via dbus interaction to e.g. use the current Maemo-Mapper view as the area to work on. Pretty much like gpxview also interacts with Maemo-Mapper --[[User:harbaum\|harbaum]] 12:50, 25 October 2008 (UTC)
-	~~::Done --[[User:harbaum\|harbaum]] 22:50, 3 November 2008 (UTC)~~
-	*[http://garage.maemo.org/projects/maemo-barcode/ maemo-barcode]: Alpha quality, could be a very cool application with some integration and interface development.
-	: I've not used maemo-barcode but I see something like this could encompass much more than barcodes. From a hi-res picture you can also extract text and then cross reference it on google. Usually, even a short fragment of text can give a very specific match for example for article text, street signs, names numbers addresses etc, eg: similar to [http://exbiblio.com exbiblio]. Then you can log it and tag it with gps/cell-id and make it all searchable. Of course, this would require a high res camera that doesn't just point at your head. --[[User:tim_edmonds\|Tim]]
-	*[http://garage.maemo.org/projects/liqbase liqbase]: Beta (now in extras) playground for sketching with kinetic graffiti with fullscreen tearfree refresh. finger friendly and FAST. shows off your tablet in the best light.
-	* Bring [http://garage.maemo.org/projects/gazpacho-maemo/ Gazpacho] back to life
-	~~: Developer tools are out of scope in this call.--[[User:qgil\|qgil]] 06:35, 23 October 2008 (UTC)~~
-	*[http://garage.maemo.org/projects/bluemaemo/ BlueMaemo]: Alpha quality, have a lot of room for improvement and new features, depending in the maemo 5 hw.
-	*[http://garage.maemo.org/projects/tear/ Tear]: Alpha quality, a simple webkit-based browser which aims for better tablet-oriented experience (and maybe cross-engine). After the alpha Fremantle SDK will probably employ a Clutter-based UI.

	: I've not used maemo-barcode but I see something like this could encompass much more than barcodes. From a hi-res picture you can also extract text and then cross reference it on google. Usually, even a short fragment of text can give a very specific match for example for article text, street signs, names numbers addresses etc, eg: similar to [http://exbiblio.com exbiblio]. Then you can log it and tag it with gps/cell-id and make it all searchable. Of course, this would require a high res camera that doesn't just point at your head. --[[User:tim_edmonds\|Tim]]		: I've not used maemo-barcode but I see something like this could encompass much more than barcodes.

		+	: I've started working on online aspect for NP including level download and submission, demo recording and upload etc though obviously the amount of work to get this up and running, especially on the web side, is not insignificant. Need more levels too. In short, an injection of manpower could get NP polished and shiny but I personally am very short on spare time these days. —[[User:tim_edmonds\|Tim]] 08:48, 27 October 2008 (UTC)

	: This is an enabler. A user can't do much twith this alone. What about proposing a specific game (or set of games) using ScummVM? --[[User:qgil\|qgil]] 06:35, 23 October 2008 (UTC)		: This is an enabler. A user can't do much twith this alone.
