Another random thought: there are ceops procedures and protocols for sites that allow input from minors.

Not to do so would be discriminatory should there come a point where ceops blocked non-compliant sites through children's safety systems and some members are then excluded.

My point is tht this place is perfectly fine for people of al ages, we lose nothing by complying with standards set down to ensure it.

In my paranoid moments, I think that Brainstorm represents a conspiracy of slowness, because of some secret reason I haven't been told. It's like, when there is a run on banks, clerks start counting money really, really slowly to give the system time to recover.
So I'd like to strongly endorse the opinion of GA, someone I have long admired and agreed with on almost every issue...

- 3 are meta-ideas about brainstorm itself.
- 4 point to already existing official functionality (PIM, SMS, Send email keyboard shortcut, kernel address space randomisation), ie would be WORKSFORME in bugzilla.
- 2 point to community projects (Mauku, Hermes) developed independently of brainstorm.
That leaves:
Call recording
Support subtitles in Media Player
Make it easier to switch to the Desktop/App Menu
for which I have no info (it would be nice to have a pointer to the implementation)

Apologies for going OT, but when filtering Brainstorm by Status = "In Development", why are brainstorms with status "Implemented" and "Under Consideration" being listed?
I tend to agree Brainstorm hasn't turned out to be as useful as we might have hoped - many good ideas will probably never be implemented (by Nokia/Maemo) due to the shifting sands that Maemo has become. Hopefully if/when MeeGo becomes a stable and long-term platform it will make more sense to invest time implementing good ideas raised through Brainstorm.

As I was reading this thread, and all of the different suggestions, I found myself thinking "oh, that's a good idea", or "don't like that one", and I'd have liked to be able to give each of the ideas a thumbs up or thumbs down...
Even if brainstorm hasn't produced a lot of other useful improvements, it seems to me like a good tool for this kinda thing...
How about putting a nice karma bounty for someone who takes up one of the brainstorm's suggestion and implements it to fulfill the brainstorm's query...
