Since Nokia apparently wants a decision around the beginning of June, then I think we need to choose some specific dates for the community awards so there is plenty of time for the new council to select the recipients in that time frame.  How about:  <br>


<br>May 10         Finalize criteria and post wiki page<br>May 10-30    Promote activity and receive applications <br>June 5          New Council Committee of 3 selects winners<br>June 10        Devices sent<br><br>Rob</blockquote>

</div><div><br>Sounds good.<br><br>I think the criteria for getting one could be simply &quot;Someone who is/has been useful to the community and has a good use for the device&quot;. Determining who fits into that is left to the council based on the details in the wiki page provided by the candidate. I shared my take on the details to be asked from the candidates earlier in the thread.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>

Alright, 25 devices for the coding competition. Based on last year&#39;s precedent. Confirmed.<br>
<br>
About the community awards... 25 devices more sounds a bit arbitrary. How is it organized? Are there categories or is it just about finding the right people? Can we keep the deadline around the beginning of June to avoid the clash with Summer holidays?<br>



<br>
Devices will default to N950, having a few N9s available just in case.<br>
<br>
Note that I&#39;d still would like to keep devices for other two activities:<br>
<br>
- Existing projects being ported/polished for the Nokia Store.<br>
<br>
- Qt 5 experimental projects.<div><div><br>
