Notes from the most recent platform team meeting:
http://wiki.osafoundation.org/bin/view/Journal/PlatformMtg20060822
Highlights:
+ The platform team will take ownership of Ashkan's event logger
project when his internship ends (Grant or Morgen).
+ Grant's stamping-as-annotations project will land in α4.
Progress is going well; he has many unit tests passing and the
UI up and running.
...
+ Morgen's sharing format changes and PJE's dump/reload features
won't land in α4, the current target is α5.
Collectively, these two imply that α4 will probably break
compatibility of sharing with α3 (I mean compatibility of xml-
based .chandler shares, not iCalendar/CalDAV). Is this OK? If
not, we could the sharing code to map stamp attributes onto the
old values: I'm not sure how much work this would be.
Grant, with the move to stamping-as-annotations, are the
attributes in the domain model actually changing? If not, then
α4 should be compatible with α3 shares.
Well, at the very least, the attribute names have changed, e.g.
'startTime' is now 'osaf.calendar.EventStamp.startTime'. Also,
stamped items would no longer have multiple Kinds, and those are
stored in the xml, so some kind of translation would have to happen
there, too.
With the help of some unit tests I wrote, I have these translations
working for Events in my stamping-as-annotation clone (i.e. mapping
stamp classes in the "new" world to kinds in the "old", and properly
dealing with attribute names). There are still 2 failing unit tests
in Chandler that have to do with Mail-stamped events, but I should
get those working today.
