Hello, Yesterday I faced that issue. I had Shell (for first time) to go quite slow consuming 25-35 CPU from time to time. I didn't do any updates or anything. It just happened from nowhere. The issue was fixed after disabling all the extensions. As I had around 15 ext enabled, it was impossible

Tools for Sharing Tasks

2013-04-02 Thread אנטולי קרסנר
Hi, This is a somewhat technical question, I hope this is the right place for it. I'm writing a GTK application which manages tasks and projects. At the moment it's more or less like GTG (Getting Things Gnome). I want to add task sharing, and I've been thinking what's the right way to do that.

Re: Tools for Sharing Tasks

git isn't designed as a sharing protocol. It's a source control tool. People have tried to take some of the versioning technology behind git and adapt it to other things (SparkleShare, there are some git-backed issue trackers, etc.) As a simple example, what happens when you have a merge

I just checked what Snowy is... sounds useful, but the Gnome Live page hasn't been touched for long time and the FAQ says it's not stable yet and not safe to trust. I agree git is not meant for sharing, but here's the idea I have in mind: Task sharing is not simple file sharing, so I can't let

Jasper already summed it up nicely, bringing some concrete examples. What I would do, is to use simply a webapp, such as RedMine, deployed somewhere all project members can access. Since it provides a REST API, you can then send and get JSON requests through normal HTTP operations. You can keep a

It seems you have a plan set out for you. If you manage to get task sharing working using git, more to you! I still think it's not the greatest idea, but I'd rather see somebody try it than us argue about it for a few days. Best of luck! On Tue, Apr 2, 2013 at 12:56 PM, אנטולי קרסנר

I see... Redmine can do the job, but it's meant to be used for a project. For a team working together using one server. My application tries to make task sharing easy even if you don't have a whole project. For example, delegate a task to your nice neighbor. What git gives me is the ability to
