Nice work, Jorge! We recently wrapped up a similar app, but I like the interface you put together & how the form flows. Did you use iUI?

Agreed, the bold titles confused me.

I still think such comments shouldn’t be there, however that’s for you to decide – invoking our CoC for that is stretching it a bit

Fabian, those comments are not mine. While I might agree with the content he could be way more polite. Even when I proudly own a STFU t-shirt, I wouldn’t have comments enabled if I didn’t want feedback

About “pushing”, I’m considering the creation of an Ubuntu or Open Source category, but I’m sure that planet *pulls*
content from blogs and not the other way

Also, I’m not really sure how they do that, but planet mysql only shows mysql related posts, no matter what you put on your personal blog

Jorge, I don’t appreciate your “STFU” responses on a blog post syndicated on Ubuntu Planet. How is that within our Ubuntu code of conduct in any way ?

Quite frankly I am really disappointed at your attitude, as indeed this has nothing to do with Ubuntu, but now you’ve elevated it to going against our code of conduct.

Planet syndicates blogs that have been uploaded to its feeds file by their owners (Ubuntu members), not the other way around. In fact you personally have to explicitly add you blog so it’s syndicated.

So in effect you are pushing your content to it, not the other way around. If this is an honest mistake, so be it. You can set category feeds to be part of Planet so you can post anything you want but only syndicate specific posts.

pinky: Nice point, I gave it the iPhone look because that’s what I have, but you are right: it works from any browser

First the positive: It’s a really nice app, i like it!

Now the negative: Why do you use your web-app to make advertising for the iPhone? It seems like this app can be used with every device which gives you a browser. So why make it sound like it is something special which only exists/works for the iPhone?

@Vadim P.:
Keep it of the planet? He didn’t post it to the planet, that’s not how planets work, the planet aggregated it from him. The planet give you window to what the developers think. You like it, good, you don’t, go do something else instead of being a whiny bitch.

Posting on some guys’ blog telling them what they can and can’t write, what an asshole you are.

PS:”Vladim P.” is as anonymous as “Some guy from teh interwebs”, I even looked it up, so STFU.

PPS:Sorry blog owner for the flames, I have low tolerance for bullshit.

Quim: about 3 hours. It’s quite simple app. I only did another first, but is only useful to take buses in Zaragoza

Tiago: I found that article today while researching the freeruner, and while its partially true, I find it exaggerated. I keep saying, I didn’t have any apps or music in my previous phones, so even with DRM is a big improvement. Freeruner is a great idea, and I’ve been dreaming with something like that since I got my first phone, but for now I need something that actually works.
