Re: [Announce][Fremantle] Qalendar -- a clone of the default calendar
 

For me ability to syncronize with pc and cloud storage would b an excellent addition as I am so fade up by failed attempts of some guys to make qvernote and dropN900 work seamlessly

Re: [Announce][Fremantle] Qalendar -- a clone of the default calendar
 

I used syncevolution itMs not so reliable(lost some apoinments from time to time) and caldav file export didn't work for me ether
Ofcourse it could be just me. Thats why I would like a working easy sync with pc

A little feedback:

The package is placed in Section: user/games. user/office would be more appropriate :rolleyes:

What's your view on localization? Some elements obey the device language setting, but most elements are English. Any plans for adding translation files like in OMP?

And finally: will you publish the source code any time soon? I am interested see how you implemented some parts of the date picker.

Edit: P.s. I see you are trying to upload to extra devel. I can always get the source there once that succeeds.

Re: [Announce][Fremantle] Qalendar -- a clone of the default calendar
 

I added it to build dependencies, but it seems to be ignored. :(


That's not a mistake. With enough imagination even this calendar is an entertaining game. For example, you can create an event with a blindly picked date and then go looking for it -- you've got an adventure game. Click some random buttons in the recurrence editor and try to guess them using just the month view -- a puzzle game! ...Alright, apparently I used gpspmgui as base for the packaging and somehow it slipped through. 0.5-2 is in the right section.

I think translations will be possible in the next release.

Although it failed in the autobuilder, looks like the source is still there: https://garage.maemo.org/builder/fre...0.5-2/sources/.

Re: [Announce][Fremantle] Qalendar -- a clone of the default calendar
 

1) There is an additional libx11-data in the second pair of braces, please remove this (see edited http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...37&postcount=5). If this is not enough, try to omit the 2: and/or use Build-Conflicts with libx11-data (=1.1.99.6+0m5+withxcb)

2) The source is there because the build failed.

Re: [Announce][Fremantle] Qalendar -- a clone of the default calendar
 

I've corrected that and tried all 4 combinations (depends/conflicts, with/without epoch), but the builder is pretty stubborn, totally ignores it.

Re: [Announce][Fremantle] Qalendar -- a clone of the default calendar
 

A little feedback:

The Polish translation is borked. It should be "lipiec" instead of "lipca" and so on.
There's no animation like with the stock calendar (but it's a minor thing, that's no problem)
There's should be more spacing between the bars which mean the events
If I click the week the menu on the top still says it's month

Re: [Announce][Fremantle] Qalendar -- a clone of the default calendar
 

fremangordon and joerg_rw fixed the autobuilder (or rather removed libx11-data and fixed stuff related to extras-devel), you should try uploading qalendar again.

Re: [Announce][Fremantle] Qalendar -- a clone of the default calendar
 

Quick reply...
I'm going to try new Qalendar, for several reasons. First, it doesn't seem like it's going to corrupt my Calendar database - not that it's large. Second, it's open-source, and therefore can be more easily modified-extended in the future. Third, I want to leave my feature requests. Such us, make sure that Qalendar doesn't use too much memory or processor, or react too slowly - default Calendar is one of the fastest opening applications. Don't include sync inside your application - sync should be an optional extension, not a vital part. Fourth, I do have an event happening on Friday 13th, which should be added to my diary, and your recurrence editor is an excellent feature.
Best wishes.

First impressions...
'First day of week' setting is absent (default calendar offers too limited choice, by the way). Scrolling effect of default calendar is achieved by jumping to previous-or-next month when days outside the current month are clicked, and is greatly missed in Qalendar.
Best wishes. Thank you.
