 Hello guys,
 
 This mail is to announce some of the role changes in the Evolution project. I 
 have been thinking about this for a long time, and I feel that this is the 
 best time to implement them.
 
 I am proud to announce Chenthill P (chen) as the new Evolution maintainer. He 
 is a long time contributor to the Evolution project and has been working in 
 the project for over 5 years.  He is well known in the community for his 
 expertise in Calendar component and has been its maintainer for the last 4 
 years.  He has been one of the prime contributors for the Groupwise provider 
 and Microsoft Exchange Calendar. A few of his notable contributions include 
 libical integration with System timezone for better Daylight savings support, 
 single-model-view design of Calendar MVC and removal of libical fork.   He 
 has mentored interns and GSOC students on Calendar search improvements, 
 Microsoft Exchange Delegation support, Google Calendar integration etc.  
 
 I am also proud to announce that Matthew Barnes (mbarnes) is joining 
 Chenthill and support him as the Evolution co-maintainer. He has been 
 contributing towards Evolution for over 3 years and is the Mail maintainer 
 for the last 2 years. He has made significant contributions towards 
 obsoleting several libraries, and helping to migrate to newer technologies. 
 He has been working on Kill-Bonobo which is a major revamp of Evolution 
 Shell. This involves rewriting Evolution components and UI which is a focus 
 area for Evolution 3.0.
 
 Going forward, I will be focusing on improving evolution infrastructure for 
 netbooks and other devices; chen and mbarnes would be driving the Evolution 
 project direction and releases.
 
 Please join me in congratulating chen and mbarnes, and in wishing them good 
 luck in their new roles.
 
Congratulations Chenthill and Matthew.  Big thanks to Srini and all the
contributors/team members for the consistent and dedicated efforts for
Evolution.

I'm confident that the trio will better their predecessors in keeping
Evolution as one of the best mailers around. :-)

 Hi guys,
I finally got evo/exchange 'working', but there are problems. The
 evolution-exchange component starts to consume 50% of my CPU, and
 beageld takes another 50%. Somehow these two are interacting badly.
What debug should I do?
You can try the following:
1) beagle-shutdown and see whether Exchange storage is taking all the
CPUs.
2) Enable E2K_DEBUG to see whether Exchange Storage is doing any server
communication.
3) Try disabling GAL Caching, if enabled.

 Hi friends,
 
 It is with great pleasure I announce that Ross Burton joins me
 as Addressbook maintainer. Ross is already the maintainer of Sound
 Juicer, Devil's pie, Contacts, Dates and Tasks. He has contributed many
 patches in Addressbook during his development of Contacts and also wrote
 the DBus port of Evolution Data Server. He started reviewing addressbook
 patches recently.
 
 I will be looking into the Evolution portion of Addressbook and Ross
 will be looking more into EDS portion of Addressbook. I'm sure that his
 addition to the team will help improve the performance and memory usage
 of Addressbook and review more patches.
 
 Welcome on board Ross !!!

  Hello,
  
  I was wondering how hard it would be to patch Evolution (or write a
  plugin) to be able to retrieve a list of emails and calendar events
  through DBUS?
 Shouldn't be that hard :). I think calendar has to be interfaced via 
 EDS
 than Evolution. This way even contacts can also take the advantage.

I am looking into something that won't take me a week or so to
implement :-)

  Is is possible to give me a few pointers on how I could do this? I 
  have
  no experience with Evolution whatsoever.
 
 What sort of pointers you need. Evolution has quite a few hooks where
 you can plug code. We can add more hooks if required. But do you have 
 a
 plan of what you are trying to achieve through DBUS interface. 

What we want to do is create an application that enables you to link
your emails, contacts, calendar items and the like. For now, we could
use DBUS to interface with Gaim and Tomboy, but Evolution is a bit more
troublesome.

In fact we would like to get a list of emails that have the label
Todo, and a set of calendar events for a certain date.
   Wow. Sounds interesting :) 
  Calendar/Contacts can still be queried using Evolution#, which is
  currently used by Beagle.  However, querying mails is not yet supported
  in Evolution#.
 
 Indeed, that would be another possibility. However, Evolution# has no
 documentation. If anyone could help me get started with Evolution# that
 would be great!
 
If you check-out evolution-sharp, you would see evolution/TestCal.cs and
evolution/TestBook.cs - these files help you to understand how to use
the basic APIs.

Alternatively, you can checkout: 
http://svn.gnome.org/viewcvs/beagle/trunk/beagle/beagled/EvolutionDataServerQueryable/CalContainer.cs?revision=3170view=markup
 - for Calendar APIs
and 
http://svn.gnome.org/viewcvs/beagle/trunk/beagle/beagled/EvolutionDataServerQueryable/BookContainer.cs?revision=3223view=markup
 - for Contacts APIs

 I think
 once you can close on that, we can easily expose hooks for the
 evolution-dbus-plugin. For some hints to start with, you can looks at
 the new-mail-notification plugin in Evolution which uses DBUS.

I had a look at that indeed, but I'm not sure how these plugins can be
loaded dynamically. Is it possible for me to develop a plugin, load it
into Evolution and try it out? This would enable rapid prototyping which
would speed up development ;-)
   You can google at tnef plugin which Notzed wrote long back. It was
   written/compiled separately and loaded dynamically into Evolution. So it
   is possible to load dynamically.
   
  Even if a plugin is written, you cannot get the notification unless you
  run Evolution - so, whatever your application is will have a
  hard-dependency on a running version of evolution.  Just a thought.
 
 Yes indeed, but isn't this a problem for Evolution# as well? Doesn't it
 also need a running instance of Evolution?
Evolution# doesn't need a running instance of Evolution - since, it is
confined to only Calendar and Contacts.  We had a mail-remote-glue
written in Evolution# that would talk to evolution using
bonobo-interface, but, we pulled it back.

[snip...]
 The very simple reason is lack of interest. Whenever I posted a patch in
 the past, it took months before somebody even touched the status of the
 bug, commented on it or even took a look at it. This has nothing to do
 with time anymore, as far as I can see (weeks, okay. But months?)
 
 Which is absolutely not my problem, nor should I condemn that or
 whatever nor am I trying to make a statement other than: well then, I'm
 also not going to loose *my* time with that.
 
 I guess that sounds fair, or doesn't it?
 
 (I have to note, though, that fejj very recently commented on some of
 the patches, for which I'm grateful and I have been taking into account
 his comments and will improve the stuff he mentioned soon).
 
Fejj is a long time contributor to Evolution and he is no different from
any evolution developers and a nod from him would be a good validation
point for Mailer hackers to work with you and get your work upstream.

Of all those features/implementations that you have mentioned so far, I
could list 2 of them fit the interest of evolution - mmap (without
summary format changes - adding len is okay) and memory-optimization in
using tokens in camel-folder-summary.c. Rest of them are too focused
and don't provide abstractions to extend for a desktop application.

Also, I am still on the assumption that you are getting your mmap work
committed to the mmap-branch, which would be validated and taken during
the next development cycle and I am yet to see any updates on that.

 Although I *AM* actively going to help the person who will port this
 stuff to Evolution's Camel. By that I mean that I *will* make time for
 this person. A lot if necessary. Entire evenings of free time if I have
 to.
 
 It's not so much about *time* itself, it's 100% about loosing it on
 something that wont be acted upon anyway. Nobody enjoys that, I
 certainly don't.
 
We appreciate that and looking forward to get the good work merged soon.

Re: [Evolution-hackers] Exchange Connector with extra log-in page

2006-11-09 Thread Veerapuram Varadhan
Hi Felipe,

If possible, can you get us a E2K_DEBUG trace?  

The trace would probably give us some-idea about the page that you
mentioned and may give pointers on the direction to take while coding
the hack. ;-)

Thanks,

V. Varadhan

 Hi everybody,
 
 I'm trying to use the exchange connector but my company seems to
 prepend a log-in page before the actual OWA.
 
 I'm really interested in accessing Exchange from Evolution, so I'm
 willing to code a hack in order to send information to this pre log-in
 page, but I wanted to hear your opinion first.
 
 Any comments?

Yes and Yes, they are part of our QA process and with the SoC thing, we
are getting quite a good number of automation scripts that are
compatible with Evolution 2.6.

I am afraid that you won't get paid as Camel already has a

 1. Branch evolution-data-server into HEAD (development, with Philip's

I have created a branch exclusively for the camel mmap summary work,
viz., mmapped-camel-summary-branch which will help Phillip to continue
his research further.

Phillip: Make sure you don't change the format-of-summary-file too
drastically, the \0 is acceptable though. 

 2. Make the patch *mandatory* in HEAD, so that it gets a good amount
 of
 testing.
 
Federico, I would like it to be maintained and well tested in the branch
rather then rushing it up in HEAD.  IMO, a branch gives more freedom to
do such research work than HEAD.  Correct me if I am wrong. :-)

 The lovely smell of programming environment flame wars!
 
 Part one 
 
 As the developer of an application that has an extremely high focus on
 reduced memory consumption and as the author of a patch for Camel that
 reduced Evolutions memory footprint with ~40 MB (maybe more, but that
 number I'm certain of) . . . 
 
 Take for example Evolution. Using ONE WEEK of hacking, I managed to
 reduce its memory footprint with at least 40 MB of ram.  

I don't know how many times I need to repeat, because, this keeps coming
in lot different threads and I see no progress to make the patch
complete.  Yes, I agree, the patch does reduce *STARTUP-MEMORY-FOOT
PRINT* of Evolution as mentioned by Federico in his blog, however, it is
*as of now* just-a-hack that the Evolution team cannot take it *as is*.

Phillip, as you keep saying the patch needs rework before considering
upstream, when are we going to get it?  Will the final-patch addresses
all the concerns raised by me and Fejj?  Guess, you are aware of the
GNOME release cycle and API freeze dates.

RE: [Evolution-hackers] Announce : Evolution 2.5.92, EDS 1.5.92, Evolution-exchange 2.5.92 and Gtkhtml 3.9.92

2006-02-28 Thread Veerapuram Varadhan
Hi Paul,

This is a pretty common error (atleast to me, as I keep getting this
very often) caused because of a stray glibconfig.h file in
prefix/gnome/include.  Just move this glibconfig.h to
some-other-unwanted-name or just delete it.

HTH,

 Paul Hands [EMAIL PROTECTED] 02/28/06 6:45 PM 
 As with the prvious (2.5.91) release, I get many, many syntax erros
trying to compile gtkhtml.  The configure step goes fine, but make fails
with syntax errors some way through, which I have no idea how to tackle.
 Any hints gratefully appreciated..

[Evolution-hackers] Please pay attention to compiler warnings.

2006-02-14 Thread Veerapuram Varadhan
Hi Hackers,

I just saw another one in plugins/bbdb/bbdb.c.  The very same gfree 
thingy.

(evolution-2.6:28994): e-utils-WARNING **: can't load plugin
'/home/bhargavi/mbe/lib/evolution/2.6/plugins/liborg-gnome-evolution-bbdb.so:
undefined symbol: gfree'

Please compile and make sure your patch doesn't introduce any *harmful*
warnings. (I would rather request for zero warnings)

Thanks,
