By popular demand, we have started a tester program!

What does that mean?

It means that you get to play with new apps as soon as they become beta, before they are released to the entire Amahi community at large.

Testing apps is a valuable form of contribution to the Amahi community, as apps may have small issues here and there as they become ready for release.

Testing helps the application packagers improve the applications that get released. This is very important as the applications grow. Check out the latest apps at:

     http://www.amahi.org/apps

We will make announcements about the latest apps added to the app gallery soon.

How to Become an Application Tester

If you are a contributor already (i.e. have packaged an app), you know what it takes, so you send us an email and we'll sign you right up.

Otherwise, we like to know you a bit and would like to interact via IRC, since that is the main avenue for feedback, so just let us know via IRC!

The only requirement is that you actively participate in the testing, you rate the apps (very important) and send feedback and report bugs at:

     http://bugs.amahi.org/

Thanks go to rampage and the community in the IRC channel for helping organize the apps and contributing to their testing so far, encouraging the implementation of this program! Please review the Testing page on what to test for with beta releases.
