the syncengine itself already has almost all the functionality of 0.8X (and even more on some parts). The only things that missing is to make the gui fully working again (ie connect the selectors for the object types to synchronize, filters etc) and the plugins. Another thing that should be done is to implement a new gui that takes advantage of the new features of opensync (it can display the progress for example, allow syncgroups etc). I thought about implementing the new gui in qt4 so we can use the same gui for linux, windows and mac.After lurking for a while, I would like to know the approximate road map for multisync. I understand 0.8 (the current version) is going the way of the dodo, and 0.9 (AKA opensync + interfaces) is the future. Is there an established road map for 0.9? It would be great to know, for example:
* when 0.9 will have the equivalent functionality to 0.8, although with
fewer (maybe one or two) connectors.
* when each connector should become available for 0.9.thats a tough question :)
the next plugin that should get finished is the syncml plugin. the other plugins are "wid" since either the original authors of the plugins have to port them or someone has to pick up.
* when multisync will be released as 1.0 (although I may not care much
about that, it could be important because of marketing reasons).
once we have a useable gui and the plugins ported i would say.
my roadmap idea was like this:
beta: current status + syncml plugin finished + old gui ported
0.90: current status + syncml plugin finished and everything tested + old gui ported
1.0: all plugins + fully working gui
that is one of the motivations of opensync.Also, does anybody know if, in the Evolution camp, there already are people arguing for changing the "Pilot" functionality into a more plugable implementation that allows for plugging multisync right into Evolution?
people should not have to use the gui we design but should be able to implement opensync into their application, but with complete access to all plugins and configured groups.
but i dont know if there are such plans already in the evolution camp.
