Yep, I have been a bit busy lately but am still actively working on tangoGPS. The additions from Stefan are really nice and fun to play with and are pretty much on the top of my list. Those of you who have been following the development of tangogps know that I barely announce things before they are there. I rather sit down and do it. Just have a look how many projects are on sourceforge with big announcements and after years they are still pre-alpha... I have spent a lot of time too on looking for hardware - something sunlight readable and bigger than 2,8". Just today came the catalog from digi-key, 2600 pages of electronics parts. Not yet sure which kind of mods are possible. In any case, I am alive and development goes on and I am currently working through my mail back-log ;) Stay tuned, Marcus ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Re: tangogps + geocaching (DL-link inside)
I'm assuming Marcus is quite busy. I emailed him 3 time about my proposed changes to persist trip data and increase the number of trips handled and got no replies. I'm gaining familiarity with his code but I'm sure what I've done could use some polishing based on feedback from Marcus. At this point I have no idea if Marcus is willing to entertain these types of contributions at all, is willing to hand off development of TangoGPS to others, or just needs some time. I'd love to have his opinions.

Re: tangogps + geocaching (DL-link inside)
Don't get me wrong here: I still think Marcus as the developer of TangoGPS is the best person to discuss all this with - I do not intend to fork or maintain any separate version, nor do I recommend to do so by any means! All I wanted was to get the code off my hands _NOW_ (actually already a lot earlier as some of you will know, sorry for the delay) , as I do not have the time to maintain or enhance it much at the moment , but hopefully it all ends up in official TangoGPS. Whether in can be included like it is now or after a thorough clean-up or restructuring by someone else I cannot tell, but at least all that is working fine for me is out there so nobody needs to duplicate the efforts. Hope this clears any possible misunderstandings, maybe Marcus will shed some light on his further plans with regard to TangoGPS, too. Stefan On Thu, May 28, 2009 at 4:46 PM, Risto H.

Re: tangogps + geocaching (DL-link inside)
Great! Could someone convert this into an .ipk and share on opkg.org? How about starting a new project to continue the development of Tangogps independently if it'd allow a faster pace of development and more open contribution. Now that Stefan knows the code, it'd be possible.. r On Thu, May 28, 2009 at 9:50 AM, Stefan Fröbe wrote: > > > On Thu, May 28, 2009 at 7:11 AM, Yorick Moko wrote: >> >> have you sent it also to marcus bauer? > > > Of course I have, and even prior to the 0.9.6 release in february already - > but as there haven't been any updates to TangoGPS since then I wanted to > get this as it is now so maybe someone else can also contribute.

tangogps + geocaching (DL-link inside)
Hi all, as previously announced on freeyourphone.de here is my enhanced TangoGPS that I used exclusively for geocaching since I received my FR about a year ago. Due to time constraints I will not be able to keep up its separate development from mainline tangogps anymore, and since my changes havn't been included since 0.9.5 I'd rather have them published raw as they might be now than forget about them. Main features I added are the ability to do complete paperless geocaching along with several small fixes: - map tiles are scaled from a lower level if they are missing in current resolution - coloured tracks based on height/speed/... - in the scripts folder, there is a script to convert PocketQueries to a geocache.db - a script to upload fieldnotes of found caches to ease logging As I haven't received any official reply to my request to geocaching.com to allow inclusion of their icons, one has to manually do so - see the script in the pixmaps dir Sorry documentation is lacking, but at least you have the code, and most of the features should be self-explanatory. The binary is UNTESTED, as my FR is still getting BUZZ-fixed... Feel free to include or enhance any of this, and I'd be very happy to receive your feedback - but please keep in mind this is my first (and after all, I hope my last) GTK coding attempt when judging the code ;-) Stefan Temporary address of storage with all the code & screenshots ( if you have the webspace, feel free to mirror ) http://www.gmx.de/mc/t9qJNy7RaCviQgmLC4X4c2UcpFgZqf ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
