Aha good point, it's a closed component, and that sucks. > > Oh and my exchange contact database contains between 80k and 120k > people. that'll take a while..... > you seem to be proud of 80 seconds for 500 people....

So, mind you, even if saving 500 contact was taking 1ms I wouldn't be proud of it, since I have absolutely no credit in Tracker's saving performance :) And when technical decisions are at stake, I tend to put things like "honor", "personal tastes" etc. away and stick to technical facts. And as you rightly point out, if you want to store 80k contacts, Tracker most likely does not cut it. > > > message of this thread.

I must admit I have a hard time understanding this part :) Tracker is not really "my technology", I happen to use it in my daily work and as such know what you can do with it and what you can't... I am no Tracker salesman, nor I do have "Tracker" tatooed on my left shoulder ;) Again, this message *was not meant to contradict your decision*, since I have myself no personal grief against EDS, and also tend to look for what's best *given clear requirements*. As Zoltan said, we never saw those requirements (we as in we people who investigated time using Tracker, which is *a* technology, not *our* technology), and I don't really care about who we should blame, who we should pity etc. Cheers Adrien _______________________________________________ MeeGo-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.meego.com/listinfo/meego-dev http://wiki.meego.com/Mailing_list_guidelines
