[maemo-community] Maemo flyer for developer/enthusiast meetups/events - community feedback

[From: Quim Gil]

Randall, maybe this is about different work cultures (I'm aware that
Mediterranean and USA standards for giving feedback are very different).

I try to help people investing their time to get the best result. To me
the easiest would be just to delete the email and wait to see what
happens. Or just reply "looks good but please don't use Nokia trademarks
because of A, B, C". But I appreciate you and your work much more than that.

The only critical feedback in my email was the reasoning why Nokia
trademarks can't be used. Let me know if it's clear and if you still
want to use those logos. Nothing is stopping you from ignoring the rest
of my comments since they were only this: comments from someone willing
to help.

PS: I guess most of us in this list have been beaten in the face much
harder when presenting proposals. Surely there are other ways of
learning but this is one that in many cases works.
