* Package name : gmailfeed Version : 1.1 Upstream Author : Anthony Vital <anthony.vi...@gmail.com> * URL : https://github.com/anthon38/gmailfeed * License : GPL-3 Programming Lang: C++ Description : A plasmoid for the notification and listing of unread emails from your Gmail inbox Gmail Feed is a plasmoid for Plasma 5. It provides a list of unread emails from your Gmail inbox. You also get notified when you receive new messages. -- To the best of my knowledge there is not yet a plasmoid in the archive that provides equivalent functionality. While most KDE users probably use KMail or Thunderbird, and with KDE5/Plasma Desktop can receive new email notification from an Android Phone, or allow their browser to display desktop notifications, I believe that it is useful to provide an applet such as this--particularly for memory-constrained systems where productivity is negatively affected by keeping a desktop email client running. Things I haven't yet investigated about this package: 1. Does it support kwallet? 2. Does it use the IMAP interface and/or OAuth 2.0? 3. Does it support GMail labels. - eg: Are the nofications/lists for IMAP INBOX or for "Primary" 4. If it supports GMail labels, are they configurable? I believe that it would probably be best to maintain it as part of the pkg-KDE team; however, I am not yet part of this team. Please CC this bug when replying. Failing that, I would use a git project in collab-maint. In terms of priority/timeline it will be at least a month or two before I have the time to package this. Cheers, Nicholas
