</div>One idea which hasn't been discussed is that we could increase<br>
appplication development related karma, or reduce talk/blog/email<br>
related karma, to give a bigger influence to application development.<br>
<br>
In general, I think that using downloads has a few merits - notably,<br>
it's the easiest to apply, which is a concern.<br>
<br>
App karma is intended to measure relevance over time, so why not have it<br>
added to maintainers karma (but then, the maintainers karma can/should<br>
go down over time - is that OK?).<br>
<br>
I see that Quim's already asked those questions in that Talk thread.<br>
<br>
It seems to me like measuring the peak height is a bit trickier, and has<br>
the same problem that the karma from the app can go up or down over time.<br></blockquote><div><br>The idea is keep the highest peak all the time, so the karma never goes down.<br><br>Best regards,<br><br>-- <br>Valério Valério<br>
