</div>Discussion is mailing lists, I think, right? 2*sqrt(#posts) seems a bit<br>
drastic - a mailing list post seems like a bigger contribution than a<br>

</div>Is this consistent with more karma for doers?<br></blockquote><div><br>That's a proposed idea, these kind of posts are normally tutorials or very informative, so a bit more relevance for them, just an idea as I said. <br>

</div>Do you have any stats on how karma might distribute after application?<br></blockquote><div> </div><div>Apart from the example above, no, but none of the apps currently in the maemo5 extras will get the maximum karma, since none has more than 300 votes.<br>
<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
This seems like an awful lot of karma, especially if you're "only"<br>
responsible for porting several popular packages to Maemo. </blockquote><div><br>Well, that's not a prefect system, we can implement something to give more karma to native apps than to ports, but the intention is to easily calculate karma.<br>
<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">It's also a<br>
very big jump from 2.xx stars to 3 stars. Shouldn't application related<br>
karma be continuous with stars & votes? Why separate <3 stars & >=3<br>
stars? Is the theory that "bad" applications don't deserve so much karma?<br></blockquote><div><br>The initial proposal was "Apps with 0 / 2,99 stars don't generate any karma since these ratings are considered low / bad." <br>
But I think they deserve some karma at least :).<br><br>If I didn't make it clear in my previous email, this values are not definitive are only a suggestion, feel free to propose other weights/formulas.<br><br>Best regards,<br>
