I agree with this, it will be nice to have “Thanks” button here.

I think the Devnet team is working on something similar. I doubt it will be a Thanks button so much as an upvote/rate up button.

Check out the thread [developer.qt.nokia.com] about it.

That’s quite a different concept really, what I am trying to rally is a thanks button for individual forum posts, that users use to show their appreciation and/or agreement with a specific post in a thread. Not an overall resource or maybe even thread. It allows a user to get appreciation for insightful information they post that people “like” :) talk.maemo.org has this as does meego.com forum.

Yea, I understand and agree. My point was that such a button will be a part of the reputation system discussed in that other post, otherwise there would be no way for users to gain reputation points.

This is correct. :)

Ah, okay. So there’ll be something similar in conjunction with that system. Fair enough :D
