Why so many posts in this forum are tagged [devnet]?

It's very interesting to see how tagging is used, we have collected quite a bit of feedback and with the feature requests from you guys I think we have a good idea of "version 2" of the tag feature.
I'm collecting ideas here: http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTWEBSITE-135, feedback is welcomed :)

[quote author="fcrochik" date="1292605036"]Is it the last? I thought we had two more to go?
EDIT: we do have this and two more to go. It goes until December 31st according to the wiki[/quote]
If I am not wrong next week would be the last. As it was announced winners will be announced every Monday till December 31. And 27th is the last Monday, so next week is the last week.

[quote author="Smar" date="1292614980"]Okay so uh... I suggest another cleanup regarding tags. [/quote]
As I understand Marius above we are in some kind of beta stage so these are only transient effects of the current solution and most probably there will be some cleaning / rationalization in the future.

earlier there was a "devnet help" forum and also a "beta" forum, and all posts going there were being tagged likewise to help in search ...

There is still the beta forum, it just has changed its place...
Anyway, I don’t see any point in those tags, shouldn’t system take care of them instead, making magic with search results.

I don't think we need to worry too much about "useless" and/or redundant tags. It should be quite easy for some admin at one point to automatically combine similar tags and delete obviously bad ones.
Few minutes of messing with the database against hours manually adding and removing tags from posts.... :(
Of course the elf being in town and the 2pts may be a good incentive for not very "smart" use of time.... :)

Just to confirm this, we have a Tag back-end where we can remove and merge tags with just a few clicks.

And just think about this: by all of these posts and discussions finally a wiki page was bor about "Tagging":http://developer.qt.nokia.com/wiki/Tagging , which I've just translated to Hungarian, and there are some other translations, so sooner or later, but there will be a nice and useful tagging system. Merging and deliting is done by admins and we can take a rest :)
