In order to enable numerous enthusiasts to deeply participate in the process of internal system development, the official programmers will carefully listen to the valuable suggestions of the enthusiasts and integrate them into the system updates. It is suggested that very early internal versions be updated every day from Monday to Friday to effectively screen the actual uses of various functions. Users need to bear various problems that occur in the equipment. The number of participants is limited to 200 - 400, and participants are required to pass strict examinations of various device development capabilities to join. At the same time, the version of each Friday is set as the development version, which also requires registration, and the number of participants is limited to 1,000. In this way, the optimization process of the stable version can be accelerated to make it more stable. Then, the version updated once every two weeks is designated as the internal test stable version, which requires registration but has no limit on the number of participants. Finally, the version updated once a month is determined as the stable version. It is believed that through this way, enthusiasts who love this device can have higher-quality and deeper communication with the official programmers. Limiting the number of people and setting up an assessment mechanism can effectively filter out those who are not professional enough in this field and ensure the quality and efficiency of communication and development.
For example, in the examination of device development capabilities, assessments on aspects such as understanding of the system architecture, code writing ability, and familiarity with device characteristics can be included. During the communication process between enthusiasts and programmers, many innovative ideas and thoughts such as optimizing interface interaction and improving system response speed may emerge, bringing new vitality and breakthroughs to the development of the device.

Firstly, I’m not sure whether the time frames are entirely realistic. It’s also questionable whether @rabbit would agree to this type of organizational change.

For example, Xiaomi Company adopted this approach. The development of the company’s early system was very rapid. This is an example. After all, the internal staff of the company is limited. Therefore, some technically proficient volunteers can be recruited to assist the company in developing the system, so as to give full play to the significance of the forum.
