[maemo-developers] [maemo-developers] How to propose yourself for a discount code

[From: Quim Gil]

Hi there,

You don't need to use the mailing list to introduce yourselves and
request a discount code. Replying to me is enough. Really. I forward
internally what needs to be forwarded about this device program.

Two things to help you understand:

- The 99% of people subscribed here can't help you getting or not a
discount code, it's quite worthless for them to get your mails.

- By sending your request to the mailing list you encourage others to
do so, and then others feel like sending a request and... then we get
the snowball effect we want to avoid. Have you thought how easy is to
get thousands of requests when you are offering 500 discount codes?

This is no viral marketing for us, just an attempt to send new devices
to those that will work efficiently on them. Thank you for your
understanding.
