[From: Cosimo Kroll]

The awareness. Who is reading the mailing lists in these days? Only small
part of the new members who are interested in the Nokia N9.

So what's wrong with a simple forum poll? Sure some people will have more
than one account, etc but that wouldn't change the results that much. I'd
guess someone can set the poll so that only accounts created before the
competition ended can vote?


This way you only need to create the poll and send mail to the mailing
lists. Simple and works.

It's not hostility, I thought we were having a forthright discussion
amongst friends.

Although looking at some of the messages outside of this thread, there
seemed to be a them/us separation; aiming ire at Ferenc for pointing out
that sending 57,000 emails was a fairly Bad Idea (whether for server load,
netiquette or plain common sense). Not his fault no-one thought about it
before, is it?

Where's all this hostility coming from? Read all of my messages.

You've just pissed me off for today, thanks. I'm done with this thread.
