[maemo-community] [Proposal] - Developers should get karma based on the relevance of their software

[From: Quim Gil]

To be constructive and practical, a proposal.  :)

There are 3 solutions with significant votes:

Solution #1: Take downloads into account
Solution #2: Take valoration into account
Solution #6: Measure existing userbase via updates

Counting downloads through updates is more efficient than absolute
downloads, so Solution #6 eliminates Solution #1.

We can decide to implement this, and go only for Solution #2 or any
other in case that later on we think it's needed more karma accuracy.

And end of this chapter.
