Problem with garage's project being refused
Sorry for bothering the whole developers mailing list about this, but I recently applied for a new project in garage, which has been refused. I was told to change it's name into something else without the word Maemo in it and try to resubmit. I did it, but garage now complains about the unix name for the project being already in use. In fact, my previously submitted version (the wrong one) exists, it's listed under the Quick Jump To ... combo box, but I can't access it to change its name or delete it. Can some garage admin please let me change the name of my project so that I can resubmit it, or at least delete it? The unix name of the project is: mmagnetic.

Maemo 5 Alpha SDK released
Today, Nokia introduced the Maemo 5 Alpha SDK including the new UI framework and APIs for application development. The redesigned Maemo UI provides a simple and beautiful experience with a finger based full screen context. Developers can now use hardware-accelerated 3D graphics at WVGA resolution. We recommend that developers writing applications for Maemo 5 follow the UI style introduced with this Alpha SDK to provide a user experience consistent with the core applications.

Re: Problem with garage's project being refused
Thank you Niels! I've resubmitted my project, hope this time everything is ok!

libicd-network-wpa
Long story short: I'm releasing under the GPL an alpha-quality icd network plugin which uses wpa_supplicant. Code is at http://svn.javispedro.com/libicd-network-wpa/trunk/ . After having bought a N810, I got hit very hard with #1635 ( https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1635 , Eduroam (EAP-TTLS+PAP) WiFi auth; apologies for my desperate message there) -- seeing it was a low priority request by then, I decided I would try and fix this by myself. Searching through this list, I found a cx3110x patch which made it compatible with wpa_supplicant, and some GPL-released icd headers which made it possible to write a icd module. What the module is doing: - It replaces libicd-network-wlan libicd-network-eap (I've defined a new network_type, WPA, whose only modules are wpa, ipv4 and ipv6) . It does not replace wlancond though, I'm using it for powersaving. - While searching, it initiates a wlancond-managed active ssid scan to each of the configured networks. - On link_up, it calls wlancond 'settings_and_connect' d-bus method to initialize the interface and enable powersaving features. - On post_link_up, it spawns wpa_supplicant, then uses settings from gconf to configure it via D-Bus, then waits for it to enter state COMPLETED (aka connected). - On pre_link_down, it kills wpa_supplicant. - On link_down, it calls wlancond's 'disconnect'. - If It gets a DISCONNECTED event from wpa_supplicant, It sets up a 100 second timeout. If wpa_supplicant goes up again (roaming?) then the timeout is removed. If it doesn't, then it tells icd to close the connection. How: -Patched cx3110x. It is only partially patched so that it does still work with libicd-network-wlan. -Patched/borked wpa_supplicant. It now works with the partially patched cx3110x, and also does active ssid scans OK. -Patched wlancond. I needed a I'm already reading wireless events by myself, no need to bother me with d-bus events and no need to take down the wireless interface for me, just set powersave mode, which I implemented. - libicd-network-wpa.so . Right now the code is on my private repository, at http://svn.javispedro.com/libicd-network-wpa/trunk/ , but I might later create a garage project for it. I'm new to Maemo (and glib, d-bus) development, with my previous coding experience being mostly PalmOS development, so please pardon me if my code is a mess. It was also born as (and it still mostly is) a hack. Now, the questions: - Does this design seem OK to you? - Some maemo applications seem to have WLAN_ADHOC WLAN_INFRA network_types hardcoded, and won't auto-download on connect event if the current network_type is not one of those. The built-in mail application comes to mind. - I've yet to come with the right rssi - signal formula, and I'm having problems with the link_status callback. May I ask for better documentation on this? I also don't understand what search_lifetime and search_interval on network_api.h are for. And I guess that's all I wanted to ask for. Thank you for your time. Hope I didn't botch anything, and sorry for grammar issues. And thanks Quim for looking at #1635 (at least Harmattan will get PAP support out of the box!). ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers

On that note, what do we do if project is there but completely unused and we want to delete it?

I know I'm not the only one ;) Probably first try contact the person who registered the project and ask him(her) to transfer ownership to you. Maybe they don't have time or have other reasons not to work on the project actively and will be glad to know that somebody wants to take it over. -- Best regards Siarhei Siamashka ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
Re: Maemo 5 Alpha SDK released
Hi, is there anything to be run on real hardware like the beagleboard? The maemo on beagleboard still lists the pre-alpha sdk as being the latest.
