Here there are a new unofficial version of GetBooks to test. You can download it from http://dev.laptop.org/~gonzalo/GetBooks-6.xo (the name of the file is the same, but is updated) New improvements: * Don't save entry in the Journal. * Download cover images in separated threads to do the UI more responsive. * Use REST client backend to search in Internet Archive (from Get Internet Archive Books activity) * Show books in the journal (My books, in the sources combo) * Improved work flow (using "Open in Journal" buttons, like in Browse) * Add support of DejaVu files. * More minor fixes
You can see the code (and start to contribute ;) ) in http://git.sugarlabs.org/~godiard/get-books/gonzalo-mainline If you want test adding a private bookserver, you can install Pathagar http://en.flossmanuals.net/e-book-enlightenment/ch026_the-pathagar-book-server and copy the file get-books.cfg from the activity to /etc directory and add a section: [MyBookServer] name = MyBookServer query_uri = http://IP_NUMBER/catalogs/?q= opds_cover = http://opds-spec.org/cover Gonzalo
