question to moderators and admins: should job postings like "this":http://developer.qt.nokia.com/forums/viewthread/1515/ be moved to the lounge instead of cluttering the various forums?

As for me now they can stay at thematic categories, but when (and if) Job category will appear we should move them there.

Congrats to Denis on becoming an Area 51 engg :) cheeers!

Now you should be soon getting moderation rights to all forums :)

Alexandra is in California on Qt Developer Days 2010, when she returns I'm sure she will give you the right powers.

I'm 147 points from Dinosaur Breeder myself, then I can wear my breeder t-shirt with pride :)

Just a note to the forum moderators, Denis (most of the ideas) and I (clicked the buttons in the back-end) did some rearranging on the forums a few minutes a go.

Language Bindings, Announcements and Wiki Discussion got moved.

Behind the Scenes is now at the bottom of the forum overview.

We hope it makes more sense now.

Even more sense: Alexandra will set up a Jobs forum and we're thinking of renaming "Desktop" to something that also covers core Qt issues not directly related to a platform. Any good ideas?

I was wondering. On the FAQs, when a "fix this"-comments has been solved on that FAQ entry, would it be best if we removed the "fix this" and "has been fixed" comments?

Example: http://developer.qt.nokia.com/faq/answer/what_is_the_qt_visual_studio_add-in (comment #1 and #2)

They don't add anything of value to the FAQ reader, in fact it only confuses the matter.

Should we as a policy delete comments regarding issues about the FAQ that has been solved?

In the link, comment #2 is missing?

I'd say better to delete the "fix xxxxx" comment .. that way not confusing the user like you rightly mentioned

After talking to Denis on IRC I went ahead and removed the comments, so it's not a very good example right now :)

Just made it to mad scientist. Thanks chetankjain and Denis for the support during the last 80 points or so that were still missing. Without the two of you I would not have made it today:-)

not at all Tobias, most deserved considering the quality of responses you've been giving to forum users.

You're lagging behind, Wolf. You're supposed to breed dinosaurs now. :P
