Hi,

I can't help you, but I like to comment the rating crap.

If I buy a box containing 10 incense sticks for 0,90 EUR by an Internet
store, I get spammed with emails to rate the product and dealer. If I
purchase an expensive audio production app for my iPad, it could be,
that messages pop up, asking me to rate the app. Very often, when I
read reviews, I notice that most good reviews apparently were written
by the company selling the app and not by customers.

Until now Linux is an OS with a community, where users share
experiences by forums, mailing lists, blogs etc., not by grading and
writing good or bad comments in an SMS style.

The rating crap is for naive users. Most ratings are of no value, at
least not for FLOSS, were it's possible to read bug trackers etc., but
even for proprietary software vendor independent forums are a better
source.

Regards,
Ralf
