And the more help you get, the more you learn, the less help you need in future, the more help you can give to others....
really... I really hope that this attitude is not nokia's/Intels idea for the future of MeeGo because that will then be a loosing battle.

I am not an average user, i can work with xterm and stuff like that. No problem but really a phone should be simple. Setting up a sync for multiply google calc should be easy to do for average users. And no average users are not here on these forums they are my not so techie brother, sister or dad.. So where do the learn that what you propose?

For phones i do believe that completely hiding the filesystem is the futher. For us tech users there must always be a way to do everything we want. But not for the average users. The average users shouldnt see a filesystem, Shouldnt have to type in "cd /" or "ls -l". They shouldnt know that in / is root and there we have 50MB free but in "/home/opt" you have 2GB free. This should all be completely hidden for an average user.


But to come back to the tweakr stuff. So if you have already a "tweakerprofileswitcher.sh" bash file, so why the integration? Just call that file from an external command...
Not that i say we should do that. Because i do believe in the opposite...

I do believe in small programs do one thing and do one thing well.
So Erminig-NG takes care of google stuff, and Alarmed is the timer event for it.
The communication is just external (asking what calenders it can sync) and then calling a specific calendar at a certain period to sync.

Its exactly they way i would like this stuff.
