The vision for this program is to put together a framework that makes it very easy for anyone to contribute devices and have them go to the most qualified community members in exchange for some commitment to do something cool with the device (attributed to Dawn Foster).
The Community Device Program is a way for community members to get devices that they can use for MeeGo work. Devices will be distributed to the most qualified community members in exchange for the commitment to do something cool with the device. Hardware manufacturers can submit a request to distribute a device to become part of this program. Visit the wiki for more details on the selection process and requirements.
A Platform or Device Champion is any community member passionate enough to act as a focal point for them. That means blogging, presenting, forum posting, leading discussions on email lists, and any similar highly visible activity in the community space. Platform or device champions need not be a subject matter expert but should always be willing to find one. Champions can cover entire platform(s) or specific device(s). Note that a Champion may or not be a Recipient.
A Device Provider is defined as any entity participating in the program, at their own expense, with the agreed goal of getting MeeGo-capable devices into the hands of eligible MeeGo community members. Some criteria:
Device Provider program details can be found on pages linked in the Platforms/Devices section. Device providers can submit devices here.
A Device Recipient is anyone receiving a device from a Provider.
The data model, workflows, forms and other aspects of the device program are described on this page.
We appreciate your understanding that there are a limited number of devices and not all requests can be granted.
We also kindly ask that if/when you no longer need the device, you transfer it to another MeeGo community member or team who can use it.
Judges will be looking for truly novel yet practical applications for provided devices. Filling an obvious gap in the MeeGo ecosystem will help your chances. Dream big, but have a solid plan for fulfilling it!
Use the form provided here to submit your request.
Following are the MeeGo platforms and devices addressed by the program. You can find examples of devices running MeeGo here, and proposal submission tracking here.
