Picky picky picky.
Nice catch actually. Wonder how so many others missed it.

In Q&A section: Today while editing one of the question, i saw few articles as suggestions. Initially it was just titles but now title, last posted and Votes too! 
Though i found a little issue which looks like misleading UI stuff. All the entries are marked and showed as 'Article'. At times, its a blog entry/tip-trick/Q&A itself! But all are shown as article.
Is this fine?
It looks like the caption should be specific or else no point of showing it at all!

Nice catch! I'll add it to the list. Thanks!

I had to uncheck yesterday, and since then it will not recheck.
That is it will if I recheck for this post, but the next one will revert back to unchecked.
Why is it not fixing as checked?
MOD
Cleared Cache it it appears fine again.

I just posted, what is perhaps the first Windows Phone 7 article, and I noticed there wasn't WP7 specific categories yet. I think a new section and categories should be added. WP7 will be rather huge I expect.
|
|
|
|

I think a Mobile Development section under articles, with the following categories
Apple
Android Phones
Windows 7
Windows 6.5
PDAs
Miscellaneous
I wonder, can you write and distribute iPhone apps without being "managed" through the Apple Store? If not, the "Apple" category wouldn't be viable.

I expect iPhone app developers can create, modify and download (I trust Apple calls that differenly, probably upload) whatever they choose, as they have installed the development tools to do so; IMO it is only app customers that need to go through the App Store channels. If so, an iPhone section could be viable.

IIRC when I looked at the iPhone stuff when it first came out I had to check some sort of NDA. I can't remember now exactly what it covered (if there was one and I'm not mistaken). I always take screen dumps of stuff like that so I'll have a look through my archive and see what I can find.

If there was one, I didn't save it 
If Chris wants to investigate, it's probably worth dropping an email to CG as he was involved in a large iPhone app at one time (yes - iPhone development sucked!  ).

An iPhone section should be viable. The NDA will take some reading, but we're hopeful.

I'll read it, the section that is, not the NDA.

I'm not too sure about the 30 Character limit in QA:
http://www.codeproject.com/answers/68180/what-is-Serilizable.aspx[^]
The OP had to paste the question several times to get around it. I answered a question (along the lines "Can I do this ..... ?" ) with a "Yes" a while back, but had to pad it out also.
Do the benefits of the limits outweigh the costs?

He really only had to post it once. The original question is over 30 chars.

I'd say so. We want to encourage descriptive questions. 30 characters is a pretty low margin - though there may be some rare, legitimate cases.

In which case, they can just add something like "thanks in advance".
