Hello!
Here's a quick overview of the current status and what still needs to
happen before 1.2 can be released.
Partial done:
* CalDAV/CardDAV support is almost done. Only missing piece is
more efficient change detection when some items changed on the
server - see "minimizing WebDAV traffic" thread.
* GTK UI has support for CalDAV/CardDAV, but it is not yet in
master.
Jussi, do you think this is suitable for merging and a MeeGo 1.2 Netbook
update? Or should we wait and put it into 1.3?
Opens:
* README doesn't describe local sync and CalDAV/CardDAV. I'd like
to clarify the terminology first. See "Couple of questions about
SyncEvolution configuration" thread [1] and comment, please.
* Do we want to add a generic WebDAV (empty sync URL,
"addressbook" and "addressbook"enabled)? They would be useful in
combination with a server which supports discovery via the
username.
* Nightly testing: SyncML and CalDAV/CardDAV okayish, D-Bus
completely broken. It seems to keep compiling obsolete versions
of the source code. I'll probably re-do the whole front-end
script from scratch (BMC #5609).
* Exporting contacts in MeeGo UX: must inline photos if they are
in a file (BMC #19661).
* MeeGo UX notifications: either the MNotification dialog must be
able to invoke the MeeGo UX UI, or it shouldn't offer that
option. Salvatore, status? Do we have a bug for that open?
Anything else that I am missing?
David, note that including CalDAV/CardDAV support in the GTK UI
shouldn't require redoing screenshots for normal sync. It might be nice
to include that though when documenting the CalDAV/CardDAV setup.
Speaking of documenting that, do you have any thoughts on the
terminology questions brought up by Ove? I'm looking for feedback from
people who are new to this.
Ove, because of these opens I am not yet preparing the 1.1.99.5
pre-release. That really would be one which users can try out, but that
depends on proper terminology and documentation for local sync.
You said that you were using 1.1.99.4. Is that because you wanted a
properly tagged version or because you need a source .tar.gz? Either
way, a current snapshot is here:
http://downloads.syncevolution.org/syncevolution/sources/experimental/syncevolution-1.1.99.4+20110624+SE+0b62402+SYSYNC+92d2f36.tar.gz
It corresponds to SyncEvolution commits 0b62402 and Synthesis 92d2f36.
The later is important, recent changes there are needed.
