Greetings all, The recent release of an Objective-C/Cocoa GData framework for the Mac platform has only heightened my personal hope and interest in Desktop/Web Services integration. I know there has been much discussion recently of the "Gnome Online Desktop" and I'm far from expert on the subject.
http://googlemac.blogspot.com/2007/04/google-data-apis-connect-cocoa.html However, it seems as though the introduction of a similar GObject/GData framework could do well for this initiative. It might simplify the use of Google's services (e.g calendar, blogger, apps, etc.) by Gnome apps. The framework could define a set of core GObjects (Feed, Entry, Service) and perhaps a DBUS service. Anyway, I anticipate that I'm not the only person to offer or suggest such an idea. But in case there is great interest, I've gone and created a project page at: http://code.google.com/p/gdata-gobject-client/ Maybe this page/email could serve as a starting point for discussion and I'm happy to add project members. (Whatever the venue, I'm just hoping that discussion and ideas will be stimulated.) There is rudimentary code I would like to check-in sometime soon as well. Any thoughts? Best regards, Jason Willis Disclaimer: I'm just a humbled Gnome user/admirer ;-) Ideas/direction/code are surely welcomed! _______________________________________________ gnome-devel-list mailing list gnome-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-devel-list
